Abstract

Esta investigación estudia el comportamiento del gasto público departamental en educación y salud para Colombia durante el periodo 1918 y 1973. Se aporta una nueva base de datos para el gasto público en salud y se amplia la existente para educación. La hipótesis sugiere que al destinar más recursos para la educación y la salud debería reducirse la brecha de desarrollo humano regional en Colombia durante un periodo histórico de importantes cambios. Para cumplir con este proposito, se evalúo la convergencia departamental, pero no es concluyente, ya que existe divergencia en el caso de la salud. Se estimó un modelo panel para encontrar los determinantes de estos gastos departamentales. En este caso, existe relación entre gasto público, ingresos fiscales, tasa bruta de escolaridad y tasa de mortalidad. Es decir, sí se hicieron esfuerzos, pero no fueron suficientes para ayudar a romper las desigualdades sociales estructurales entre los departamentos. KEY Classification-JEL: N36; N96; 023; R58
