Abstract

O trabalho procura avaliar a eficiência da despesa pública numa comparação entre dezessete países da América Latina para o período entre 1998 e 2002. Inicialmente, a partir de indicadores econômicos e sociais de cada país, foi construído um índice composto como medida do desempenho dos serviços públicos. Para avaliação da eficiência, o índice composto foi confrontado com os gastos de consumo do governo geral mediante a utilização de um modelo empírico semi-paramétrico de dois estágios (método DEA, no primeiro estágio, e regressão truncada, no segundo estágio). As evidências mostraram que Costa Rica, Uruguai e Chile obtiveram os melhores resultados tanto no desempenho dos serviços como na eficiência do gasto público
