This work has as objective, to demonstrate the ascension of the neoconservative’s project of hegemony, in the United States. And as their main ones presupposed ideological they are used inside president Ronald Reagan's pronouncements, on Nicaragua. The speeches were addressed the North American population, and not to Central America countries, as it would be of supposing. The progress of the neoconservadorism, settled on very defined historical bases. That beginning can be located in the end of the 60’s, during the government Johnson, and their social politics, going by the political and moral crisis - Watergate, and the trust loss in the national might, starting from the defeat in the War of Vietnam. Important other focus of the neoconservadorism, was the excess of the Welfare State, that they believed, it punished the productive sectors of the North American society. Reagan gave emphasis to the following concepts: freedom-market, nation and nationalism, democracy and totalitarianism. These concepts will allow to understand because the attacks to Nicaragua became an important element for the foreign policy of the United States.
