Abstract

Resumen: El objetivo de este trabajo fue explicar el mayor o menor ritmo de crecimiento de la productividad total de los factores (PTF) en las principales economías del este asiático y latinoamericanas entre 1960 y 2015. Encontramos evidencia econométrica favorable a una hipótesis: el aumento del gasto público de consumo, dada la evolución de otros factores, tiene un efecto negativo sobre la PTF. Otros resultados del ejercicio econométrico, aquellos relativos a hipotéticos efectos positivos de la inversión pública y de las importaciones sobre la PTF, no fueron, unos, tan robustos, ni, otros, tan confiables como hubiésemos esperado. / Abstract : The objective of this paper was to explain the greater or lesser growth rate of total factor productivity, TFP, in the main East Asian and Latin American economies between 1960 and 2015. We found econometric evidence favorable to this hypothesis: the increase in public consumption expenditures, given the evolution of other factors, reduces the TFP. Other results of the econometric exercise, those that are related to hypothetical positive effects of public investment and imports on TFP were not as robust or as reliable as we would have expected.
