    Resum:
    We performed a comparative analysis of public policies for higher education in Argentina and Bolivia.The policies are expressed through different dimensions: the normative aspects, the consequent organizational structure of the higher education system, and its expansion in both countries.The comparative analysis is done by emphasizing the importance of the context in determining the policies from a social, cultural, economic, and political perspective. The used comparative education is approached from the theory of conflict, which is recognized as going beyond the rational approach since the former addresses the reality from its multidimensionality.The higher education system of the Argentina Republic is binary (university education and non-university higher education); the one corresponding to the Plurinational State of Bolivia comprises four levels in its structure (Teacher Training, Technical and Technological, Artistic, and University).In the Argentine case, the law normalizing the education system is from 1994 (although the current political context differs markedly with that of 1994). In the case of Bolivia the law 070 is from 2010, which represents the values of the group in exercise of the current power.
