Abstract

Resumen: Existen muchos artículos técnicos acerca de la construcción, calibración y solución de los modelos de equilibrio general aplicados, pero pocos acerca de la metodología y conceptos usados para llegar a la construcción de estos. Este trabajo, concentra la discusión en el área conceptual de estos modelos, más que en su parte técnica. El objetivo de este trabajo es presentar los elementos conceptuales clave para tener en cuenta antes de la construcción de esta clase de modelos. Como se aprecia a lo largo del trabajo, estos modelos tienen una sólida base conceptual que permite la construcción de diferentes choques económicos o alternativas de política económica, que sirven para el análisis y la evaluación de políticas públicas. Finalmente, dada la microfundamentación de estos modelos, la forma en la cual se esparcen los choques a través de la economía puede analizarse; sin embargo, esto depende de los parámetros que son colocados en las formas funcionales del modelo. Abstract: There are many technical papers about construction, calibration and solution of applied general equilibrium models, but few about methodology and concepts used to arrive at the construction of these. This paper aim is discussion in the conceptual area of these models, rather than in the technical part. In this way, here shows key conceptual elements to take in account before building this kind of models. As it can be seen throughout this paper, this kind of models have a solid conceptual base that allows the construction of different economic shocks or economic policy alternatives, which serve for the analysis and evaluation of public policies. Moreover, this way of building policy scenarios is not only applied in this type of model, but in other alternatives of public policy analysis. Lastly, given the microfoundation of these models, the way in which shocks are spread throughout the economy can be analyzed, however, this depends on the parameters that are settled in the functional forms of the model. Résumé: Il existe de nombreux articles techniques sur la construction, l’étalonnage et la solution des modeles d’équilibre général appliqués, mais tres peu parmi d’eux font référence a la méthodologie et les concepts utilisés dans leur construction. Ce travail concentre la discussion dans le domaine conceptuel de ces modeles plutot que dans sa formulation technique. L’objectif de ce travail est de présenter les éléments conceptuels clés a prendre en compte avant la construction de cette classe de modeles. Nous verrons que ces modeles ont une base conceptuelle solide qui permet la construction de différents chocs économiques ou alternatives de politique économique, lesquelles servent a l’évaluation des politiques publiques. Enfin, compte tenu des fondements micro-économiques de ces modeles, nous analysons la maniere dont les chocs sont répartis dans l’ensemble de l’économie, cependant, cela dépend des parametres placés dans les formes fonctionnelles du modele.
