Abstract

La dolarización se cumple cuando se adopta una moneda extranjera, usualmente el dólar, dejando de lado la moneda nacional existente. Debido a la importancia del tema y siendo un concepto reciente y reconocido, esta investigación presenta una detallada y amplia revisión bibliográfica sobre los principales trabajos que analizan el tema de la dolarización. Adicionalmente, este artículo pretende determinar las causas, los tipos y los efectos que se generan a raíz de la misma. Los autores logran coincidir en que la dolarización se ha implementado tradicionalmente para solucionar los desequilibrios macroeconómicos que presentan las economías; tales como, los brotes inflacionarios, un desordenado movimiento en los tipos de cambio, de desequilibrios fiscales y en cuenta corriente, y de desempleo, entre otros.
