Abstract

La tasa de crecimiento económico puede estar positivamente relacionada con el gasto público en capital humano e infraestructura física. Pero el gasto público tiene un costo de oportunidad, así que debe existir un nivel óptimo de tal gasto. En este documento se presenta un modelo de crecimiento económico con gasto público en esos rubros, y los resultados de las simulaciones con aquel para estimar o evaluar, en el caso Colombiano.
