Abstract

El objetivo de este artículo es especificar un modelo empírico basado en los argumentos teóricos, que cuantifique la influencia del capital humano, medido a través de un conjunto de variables que reflejan el comportamiento de la salud y la educación, sobre el resultado del crecimiento económico observado para Colombia, entre los anos 1960 y 2009. Realiza un recorrido por la literatura referente al crecimiento económico y el capital humano, representado por la salud y la educación, de tal manera que, con las fuentes de información disponibles en Colombia, realiza una selección de datos que permite la obtención de variables que reflejen y cuantifiquen los canales de trasmisión sugeridos por la teoría existente. Para terminar, especifica un modelo empírico que estima la relación teórica entre el capital humano y el crecimiento económico.
