Sumario: | In Central America, especially since the 2000s, a broad set of social policies have been implemented.

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. |
