Abstract

El objetivo de este artículo es analizar las condiciones en las que se produjeron las depreciaciones en Argentina durante la Gran Depresión. El método: una revisión de la literatura y la aplicación de análisis econométrico. Para ello, tras analizar el contexto monetario de la época y el impacto de la Gran Depresión, se abordan las condiciones económicas en América Latina y Argentina durante aquellos años. Las literaturas internacional y nacional destacan que, frente a las dificultades de efectuar devaluaciones internas para ajustar los precios, la depreciación monetaria fue crucial para el reequilibrio de precios. Esto se logró al contrario de lo que la teoría de la paridad de poder adquisitivo hubiera predicho. A través de técnicas econométricas, se verá cómo los precios de las exportaciones argentinas fueron claves para el éxito de esta medida. KEY Classification-JEL: E31; E42; F33; N16
