Abstract

El presente documento investiga cómo la exposición a las importaciones en determinadas industrias bolivianas afectó a los ingresos laborales de los trabajadores en dichas industrias. Trabajando con las encuestas de hogares 2005-2009, se estiman ecuaciones de Mincer mediante técnicas de pseudo-panel, para controlar la presencia de variables no observables constantes en el tiempo. Se discuten los problemas econométricos de inconsistencia que pueden surgir al no considerar explícitamente la presencia de estos efectos al estimar ecuaciones de Mincer. Nuestros resultados de pseudo-panel sugieren efectos reducidos: se estima que un aumento del 1% en la penetración de las importaciones en una industria dada reduce el ingreso laboral real para sus trabajadores en un 0,84%.
