Abstract
Contemporary educational policies that encourage competition between schools subscribe to economic arguments about the superior nature of markets and are articulated based on a virtuous vision of their effects. The following report aims to explore the connections between market dynamics in education, especially the expansion of competition between schools through privatisation identifying the responses that schools elaborate to a competitive environment. Thus, our objective is to understand how market dynamics are related to the trajectories of schools during the period 2000-2010 in Chile. To respond to this objective, we used a research design based on a multiple case study and through different sources of information we examined the trajectory of public and private schools located in highly competitive contexts.
