Résumé
This article argues that New Granadian and Colombian leaders examined models of material and intellectual progress in the United States and in who helped me over the course of this research in Colombia, Argentina, their neighboring countries within the hemisphere. For many SpanishAmericans, the material progress already achieved by the United States and the North Atlantic overall was an idealized end, and they looked at some U.S. institutions as potential templates. As for the means to meet such an idealized end, influential people in New Granada and Colombia found among their neighboring countries a more pragmatic set of experiences that would help them foster progress in their own right. Over the second half of the nineteenth century, and more actively when turning into the twentieth, some Colombian leaders sought to follow the example of countries such as Argentina, one of the frontrunners of Latin American contemporary progress.
