Abstract

El principal objetivo de este trabajo es examinar el comportamiento del desempleo en relación con el ciclo económico y los precios del capital y el trabajo. También se plantea un modelo teórico en el que se incluyen como determinantes del desempleo las variables mencionadas: el efecto del ciclo es negativo y el de los precios positivo. La hipótesis se contrasta utilizando información anual de las siete principales áreas metropolitanas de Colombia para el período 1983-2018. Los análisis econométricos no rechazan la hipótesis.
