The Programs of Conditional Cash Transfer as a neoliberal way to manage the social issue

Neoliberalism continues to demonstrate its incompetence when considering a reasonable standard of social integration. The Programs of Conditional Cash Transfer implemented in Uruguay from the creation of the Ministry of Social Development (Mides) in 2005 were designed with the explicit objective of combating extreme poverty, a direct result of the application of neoliberal policies developed in Uruguay. The article shows that the paradox in the device itself is that it attempts to perform within the limits imposed by the neoliberal rhetoric.
