Abstract

En el presente artículo se desarrolla una extensión del modelo de la restricción externa al crecimiento a través de la incorporación de la tasa de acumulación de capital y de la tasa de crecimiento de la productividad del capital como determinantes de la tasa de crecimiento de las importaciones en una primera versión, y de las tasas de crecimiento de las importaciones y de las exportaciones en una segunda versión. En la primera versión se argumenta que, además de la tasa de crecimiento de las exportaciones, la acumulación de capital y la tasa de crecimiento de la productividad del capital determinan la tasa de crecimiento consistente con el equilibrio dinámico de la balanza comercial. El efecto de la acumulación del capital puede ser positivo, nulo o negativo dependiendo de si los requerimientos de importación para generar la acumulación de capital son menores, iguales o mayores que la sustitución de importaciones que se genera a través de la modificación de la estructura productiva de la economía. Asimismo, si la tasa de crecimiento de la productividad del capital es en parte exógena y en parte endógena a la acumulación de capital, ésta última puede afectar a la tasa de crecimiento de largo plazo tanto de forma directa como indirecta a través de su efecto en la productividad del capital. En la segunda versión se muestra que las diferencias internacionales de las tasas de crecimiento no solo se deben a los patrones de especialización internacional, sino que también a las disparidades internacionales de las tasas de acumulación de capital.
