dc.description Populist movements, particularly those of Latin America, have been perceived as an intellectual problematic object since its appearance. In several occasions they introduced in the public discourse the issue of «emancipation» of Latin American nations from foreign guardianships or oligarchic national minorities, and implemented nationalist state policies. This article examines aspects of the education policies of the governments of Getúlio Vargas in Brazil and Juan D. Perón in Argentina, especially the reform and expansion of technical-vocational education boosted by both of them. The study highlights the connection between these reforms and the groups and social classes which provided support to these governments and with the strategies of the application of power. The article briefly revises the different interpretations that populism has generated and refers to the current academic debate on the subject. The conclusion points at the fact, that populist governments present contradictory stages in their social and educational policies, perhaps as an expression of the difficult conflicts that still hit Latin American societies.<br>Los movimientos populistas, en particular los latinoamericanos, han constituido desde su aparición un objeto intelectual problemático. En varios casos instalaron en el discurso público la cuestión de la «emancipación» de las naciones latinoamericanas respecto de tutelas extranjeras o de minorías nacionales oligárquicas, y aplicaron políticas estatales nacionalistas. En este artículo se analizan aspectos de las políticas educativas de los gobiernos de Getúlio Vargas en Brasil y de Juan D. Perón en Argentina, en especial la reforma y expansión de la enseñanza técnico-profesional impulsada por ambos. Estas reformas se ponen en relación con los grupos y clases sociales que dieron apoyo a dichos gobiernos y con las estrategias de ejercicio del poder desplegadas. Se pasa revista de manera abreviada a las diferentes interpretaciones que el populismo ha generado y se hace referencia al debate académico actual sobre el tema. Se concluye que los gobiernos populistas presentan facetas contradictorias en sus políticas sociales y educativas, quizás como expresión de difíciles conflictos que continúan afectando a las sociedades latinoamericanas.
