This article is aimed to review the central norms and theoretic guidelines of the two last change proposals for Bolivian Education, it is to say the 1994 Law for the Educational Reform 1575 and the 2010 Education Law "Avelino Siñani-Elizardo Pérez" 070. Each of them elaborated under State Political Constitutions of different political sign. The author compares each legislation principal features on constitutional and specific bases, educative objectives and curricular traits; and in order to clarify these educative proposals she describes some complementary aspects of the national educative system, essential to the organization and functioning of any proposal. Continuities between both legislations and the Bolivian Education Code (1955) are pointed out as well as meaningful ruptures, particularly in the political ideological supports. Finally, the author states that there is still a way long to go in order to deep the legal and theoretical guidelines of the 2010 proposal and to develop the required tools for its implementation.
