Abstract

Este artículo estudia los cambios en la inequidad de la dotación educativa en Colombia entre 1968 y 2000 en términos de desigualdades intra e inter regionales. Se introducen recientes técnicas analíticas para examinar las consecuencias de los efectos espaciales en la evolución de la desigualdad. Adicionalmente, se analiza la relación existente entre los regímenes administrativos intergubernamentales y las inequidades. Los resultados indican que los efectos espaciales incrementan las desigualdades en la dotación educativa entre regiones y al interior de las mismas. Mientras que la descentralización está asociada con tasas de crecimiento altas en la dotación educativa, las medidas de desigualdad registran una mayor disminución durante los períodos de administración centralizada. Debido a que actualmente la educación opera bajo un esquema descentralizado y a que el malestar social aún persisten en Colombia, la adopción de un componente redistributivo y la incorporación de una dimensión espacial deben ser prioritarias en la modificación de las políticas diseñadas para reducir las disparidades en la dotación educativa regional.
