Abstract
Aun cuando Santander se mantiene con un PIB por habitante entre los mayores del país, en los últimos años muestra un rezago relativo en su desempeño económico y social. Dadas estas tendencias, el objetivo de este documento es revisar la evolución económica y social de este departamento en el siglo XXI, con el propósito de identificar los principales patrones de cambio y explorar posibles causas de dicho comportamiento. Los resultados indican que la economía santandereana mantiene una importancia relativa en la generación del producto colombiano y un PIB per cápita por encima del promedio nacional. Este promedio esconde la heterogeneidad en las condiciones económicas y sociales al interior del departamento, pues los municipios muestran condiciones diversas. Este entorno de la economía santandereana impone retos a la política pública del departamento. **** ABSTRACT: Although Santander maintains one of the highest GDP per capita in the country, its economic and social performance has lagged in recent years. Given these trends, the objective of this document is to review the economic and social evolution of this department in the 21st century, with the aim of identifying the main patterns of change and exploring possible causes of this behavior. The results indicate that Santander's economy maintains relative importance in generating Colombian GDP and its per capita GDP is still above the national average. This average hides the heterogeneity in economic and social conditions within the department, as the municipalities present diverse conditions. This environment of the Santander economy poses challenges to the department's public policy.
