This work aims to address the evolution of anti-poverty policies through the economic and politics dynamics in Brazil and in Mexico. The biggest experiences of conditional cash transfer programs in Latin America, Bolsa Família and Oportunidades are outgrowth of a public policy maturation process which has started much before their operational designs. Between 1988 and 2006 anti-poverty policies were both cause and consequence of important changes in politics, economic and social dynamics in Brasil and in Mexico. At the macro level, historic conditions of social exclusion, poverty and fiscal constraints in Latin America stimulated this as a common experience in the great majority of the countries of the region. At the micro level, national specificities in the liberalization and democratization processes have helped to shape policy design and its ways of institutionalization. By observing these programs as dependent and independent variables, the work aims to understand how two governments one with major right-wing tendencies and the other, left-wing have used institutionalization and expansion of similar public policies to reach presidency and maintain themselves in power after economic reforms and consolidation of democracy. After implementation, expansion and stabilization of these programs, discussions on the ways of breaking the intergenerational cycle of poverty has resumed the focus on subjects that have been marginalized in the last decades: the necessity of services supply investments and the stimulus on jobs creation.
