Abstract

Utilizando datos de panel para el periodo 1996-2001 y datos de corte transversal para los años 1990 y 2003, este artículo evalúa si el crecimiento en Chile ha sido “pro pobre”. Se emplean dos estrategias. Primero se estima la “Curva de Incidencia del Crecimiento” y luego se estima paramétrica y no paramétricamente la relación entre el ingreso per capita de los hogares en 1996 y el cambio en el ingreso 1996- 2001. Los resultados indican que el crecimiento ha incidido significativamente en la reducción de pobreza en el periodo. Por otra parte, existe evidencia débil de convergencia entre ricos y pobres.
