In this paper the authors try to participate in the debate about the progressivegovernment’s nature at the same time they explore about the supposed end of cycle of these governments. The authors sustain that characterization of the progressive government’s cause a political perspective that see these governments as continuity or negation of neoliberalism.  From the left and from the right, the progressive governments have been severely criticized and probably these critics influence in the assertion about the end of cycle of the progressive governments. There are at least five characterizations of the progressive governments: the neoliberal right perspective, the approach of the postextractivist/postdevelopment left, the proposal of the autonomist left, the critic of the left with socialist horizont and the perspective of the posneoliberal left that comes from a marxist matrix.

Keywords : End of cycle; Progressive governments; Neoliberalism; Right; Left.
