Descrição
Resumo:In Central America, especially since the 2000s, a broad set of social policies have been implemented. Therefore, the aim of the article is to compare the social policies of Costa Rica and the Northern Triangle: Guatemala, Honduras y El Salvador.

The article shows that the early democratization of Costa Rica has allowed it to have a considerable tradition of social policies, which is presented as a fundamental variable to understand its relative success in reducing poverty compared to the countries of the Northern Triangle.
