Abstract

El propósito de este artículo es analizar el impacto de las explotaciones de carbón en el crecimiento económico de los departamentos del Cesar y La Guajira, Colombia. Para estimar el efecto de la explotación de carbón sobre la economía de estos departamentos se utilizó inicialmente la estadística descriptiva. Luego se hizo una regresión de corte transversal y su método de estimación fue por Mínimos Cuadrados Ordinarios - MCO. Se realizó el análisis de efecto causal de ambos departamentos, utilizando dos funciones: una con la producción minera y otra con la ciudad minera (es decir, municipios productores de carbón), esto para evitar problemas de multicolinealidad que se pueden presentar en ambas variables. Se observó una alta dependencia del PIB de Cesar y La Guajira con la producción de carbón, lo que se refleja en la mayor participación que tienen los municipios mineros dentro del PIB departamental.
