Abstract
RESUMEN En este trabajo se realiza un análisis de las principales barreras a la entrada en mercados industriales, y un contraste empírico para el sector manufacturero del área metropolitana de Cali durante el período 1994 - 2002. El análisis se realiza con base en las diferentes perspectivas teóricas que plantean la Organización Industrial y la Microeconomía. También se realiza un análisis descriptivo de la dinámica empresarial que existe en el sector manufacturero del área metropolitana de Cali y se intenta contrastar el efecto de las barreras a la entrada a través de una estimación con la técnica de datos de panel; con este fin, se estima un modelo de corte transversal en donde se tiene en cuenta el efecto de las barreras a la entrada en 17 sectores industriales; posteriormente se hace lo mismo con un modelo de efectos fijos. Se encontró que las principales barreras a la entrada en la industria calena son la estructura de costos medios, la concentración del mercado y la intensidad tecnológica. Los sectores más concentrados son el de fabricación de papel y productos de papel, fabricación de productos minerales no metálicos, fabricación de productos de caucho y plástico, y la industria de bebidas. ABSTRACT In this work an analysis is made of the main entry barriers in industrial markets, and an empirical contrast for the manufacturing sector of the metropolitan area of Santiago de Cali from 1994 to 2002. The analysis was based on different theoretical perspectives proposed by industrial organization and micro-economy. A descriptive analysis was also carried out of the entrepreneurial dynamics which exist in the manufacturing sector of the city of Santiago de Cali, with the intention of contrasting the effect of the entry barriers by means of an estimate using the panel data technique. For this purpose, a cross-section model is estimated in which the effect of the entry barriers in 17 industrial sectors is taken into account. This is done subsequently with a fixed effects model. It was found that the main entry barriers in industry in Cali are the medium cost structures, the concentration of the market, and the technological intensity. The most concentrated market sectors are paper manufacturing and paper products, he manufacture of non-mineral metal products, rubber and plastic and the beverage industry.
