Abstract
Este artículo busca responder si las economías regionales colombianas fueron objeto de reconstitución en sus estructuras productivas entre 2000 y 2014, y de haberse dado, representar en qué sentido dicho proceso ha sido eficiente para los diferentes departamentos, desde los resultados y la dinámica de sus actividades económicas. Para ello, se ha recurrido a la aplicación de una serie de indicadores estadísticos particulares en el estudio de la geografía espacial, entre los que se destacan el análisis factorial bajo el método de componentes principales para explicar la orientación productiva regional; asimismo, se utilizaron en forma complementaria los índices sintéticos de especialización productiva regional, para analizar la dinámica de la diversificación productiva departamental. Los resultados de la presente investigación muestran que buena parte de las regiones colombianas han venido diversificando su actividad económica en franca orientación a las actividades de servicios, entre las que, sin embargo, son representativos los servicios de gobierno y de no mercado producidos por estas instituciones, dejando progresivamente de depender de unas escasas y concentradas fuentes de crecimiento, contrario a otras en las que ha sido y sigue siendo el sector primario particularmente el minero— el eje dinamizador de las estructuras productivas. Con ello, se ha retrasado el proceso de diversificación acorde con las demandas locales y un orden económico internacional que las requiere, en la medida del paso del tiempo, con mayor intensidad.******This document is directed to responding if Colombian regional economies restructured their productive activities from 2000 to 2014, and if so,illustrate the way that process has been effective in the different departments from the results and dynamics of their economic activities. For developing this exercise, we used a set of statistical indicators of spatial geography, among which is the factorial analysis, specifically the method of principal components, whose purpose was to identify the set activities whose performance explains more clearly the productive orientation of the departments, and complementary synthetic regional specialization indexes were employed in order to identify the degree and the changes of economic diversification, presented in those indicators. The results of this research shows that most of the Colombian regions have diversified their economic activity, with focus on service activities, among which are representative government and non-market services produced by those institutions, nowadays less dependent on few sources of growth. However, in other regions the primary sector, mainly mining activity, for many years has been the most important activity of production structures, affecting the process of full diversification, which is close to current local demands and international economic order the requests with greater intensity.******Este artigo procura responder se as economias regionais colombianas foram objeto de reconstituicao de suas estruturas produtivas entre 2000 e 2014, e, se sim, representar em que sentido esse processo foi eficiente para os diferentes estados, a partir dos resultados e da dinamica de suas atividades economicas.

Os resultados da presente pesquisa mostram que boa parte das regioes colombianas vem diversificando sua atividade economica em franca orientacao as atividades de servicos, entre as quais, contudo, sao representativos os servicos de governo e de nao mercado produzido por essas instituicoes, o que deixa progressivamente de depender de umas escassas e concentradas fontes de crescimento, contrário a outras em que continuam sendo o setor primário —particularmente a mineracao— o eixo dinamizador das estruturas produtivas. Com isso, tem sido atrasado o processo de diversificacao plena em consonancia com as demandas locais e com uma ordem economica internacional que as demanda, com o passar do tempo, com maior intensidade.
