This article presents the research on the agenda formation process of the Income Transfer Programs (PTR) in the countries of the Southern Cone of America: Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay. The objective was to know which were the main institutions, social policies, actors and critical junctures that influenced the entry into the governmental agenda of the PTR in these nations. The approaches to agenda formation and historical institutionalism with their concepts of path dependence and critical junctures were used as a theoretical reference, because they allow a comparative study of public policies. It is a hermeneutic investigation, documentary, descriptive, analytical and comparative. It is a case study whose units of analysis are the PTR in the countries of the Southern Cone of America. The temporality defined was the first decade of the 21st century, because in that period those programs were implemented and with very important results. The results of the investigation show the elements and particularities of the processes in each nation.
Keywords: social policies; PTR; agenda formation, historical institutionalism.
