Abstract

En este trabajo estudiamos los patrones de especialización productiva regional en Argentina y su evolución entre 1996-2014. La metodología es descriptiva y se basa en el cálculo de indicadores de especialización relativos, a partir de datos del total del empleo asalariado registrado provincial. Los resultados indican que las especializaciones de las provincias centrales corresponden al sector industrial y se vinculan a la presencia de economías de aglomeración y capacidades tecnológicas, mientras que los perfiles de las provincias periféricas dependen de la dotación de recursos naturales y, en ciertos casos, de políticas de promoción industrial. In this article we analyze regional patterns of productive specialization in Argentina, as well as its evolution between 1996-2014. The methodology is descriptive and it is based in computing relative specialization indexes, using data of all regional formal employment. The results show that the specialization profiles in central provinces are related to manufacturing and the existence of agglomeration economies and technological capabilities. Meanwhile, the specialization profiles of lagged regions depend on natural resources and, sometimes, industrial promotion policies.
