Market liberalization reforms have constituted an extensive policy trend across developed and developing nations. Beyond strictly macroeconomic terms, these reforms deeply affect the institutional configuration of the state. Such changes at the state level have consequences for the state's role as the central provider and administrator of social protection programs and they have generally resulted on deep budgetary cuts for the social sector.

520 $a Market liberalization reforms have constituted an extensive policy trend across developed and developing nations. Beyond strictly macroeconomic terms, these reforms deeply affect the institutional configuration of the state. Such changes at the state level have consequences for the state's role as the central provider and administrator of social protection programs and they have generally resulted on deep budgetary cuts for the social sector.
520 $a The present transformations of social provisions could be synthesized along three central dimensions: Decentralization, privatization of social programs, and targeting of the beneficiaries. Whereas decentralization cut across all types of social protection programs, and privatization processes have been mostly stressed in the literature of social policy reforms in Latin America, less research has been devoted to the analysis of programs left out from this privatizing trend yet subject to revision (e.g. family allowances, infant-maternity nutritional programs). How are endemic social problems being solved in those programs not affected by such privatization processes under the new conditions---rationalities, state regulatory scope and autonomy---brought about by anti-state reforms?
520 $a I provide an exhaustive historical comparison of the transformations of infant-maternity nutritional programs along targeting principles in Argentina and Chile as a consequence of the implementation of market liberalization reforms. How do different institutional contexts affect the specific characteristics of the reforms, their resulting policy programs, and their overall social and economic effects? Relatively similar overall policy lines have been implemented in both cases: Universalistic social insurance policies in the 1930s/1940s and targeting programs in the 1980s/1990s. Despite such similarities along international policy trends, it is hypothesized that the central and contrasting long-term historical and institutional characteristics (e.g., state institutional capacities, and policy coordination, integration and continuity) in Argentina and Chile account for most of the variation on the overall process of reform implementation as well as on the socioeconomic effects and impact of social policies.
