Abstract

In the actual paper, it is analyzed the economic impact that landlockedness causes to Bolivia since more than a century. It is found that economic damages are enormous and they did not end, yet. Applying some estimations through econometric models, it is observed that every year, Bolivia loses about 46,92 per cent of its exportations. Taking into account that percentage, during years 1970 – 2009, Bolivia lost about 30.7 billion of American dollars.
