Abstract

Los ciclos econ�micos colombianos de la segunda mitad del siglo XX implicaron considerables variaciones en los agregados reales de la econom�a. A partir de un modelo con tecnolog�a de producci�n AK y una funci�n de producci�n de bienes de capital que presenta retornos decrecientes para la inversi�n, se calcul� el costo de las fluctuaciones econ�micas en t�rminos de consumo y bienestar de las familias. Seg�n nuestros resultados, bajo estabilidad econ�mica la tasa de crecimiento de largo plazo del consumo per c�pita se habr�a incrementado entre 0,13 y 0,47 puntos porcentuales, pasando de 1,4% por a�o, en el escenario fluctuante, a una tasa en el intervalo 1,53% -1,87% anual. De acuerdo con diferentes niveles de la elasticidad intertemporal de sustituci�n del consumo, la compensaci�n necesaria para hacer que las familias obtuvieran un mismo bienestar bajo los dos escenarios (fluctuante y estable) equivaldr�a, en promedio, a 4,7% del consumo inicial.
