Abstract

Esta investigación proporciona nueva evidencia sobre la evolución de los salarios reales por cualificación en Uruguay entre 1918 y 2009 y su vínculo con los cambios en la demanda y oferta derivados de las etapas dedesarrollo económico, así como del impacto de los cambios institucionales ocurridos en el período. Este trabajo mejora los datos existentes sobre la evolución de los salarios en Uruguay, proporcionando nuevas series de trabajadores cualificados, semicualificados y no cualificados. En el análisis se revela que los cambios en la demanda y los aspectos institucionales son determinantes en la evolución de los salarios por cualificación. La brecha salarial por cualificación no fue constante y, si bien se redujo hacia mediados del siglo xx, esta tendencia se revierte a partir de los años sesenta. KEY Classification-JEL: J40; J24; J31; N36
