Abstract

En este trabajo se estudia el desempeno económico de las provincias argentinas durante el período 1961-2000. El desempeno económico se define a partir de los diferentes regímenes que determinan el crecimiento y el producto per cápita anual que tuvo cada provincia durante el período. Mediante la introducción de técnicas de clusterización jerárquica se detectan los distintos grupos de desempeno y se estudia su evolución. Se encontró que existen fundamentalmente dos conglomerados que agrupan provincias con desempenos económicos similares y provincias en transición que no pueden vincularse a ninguno de estos conglomerados. Por un lado, existe un conglomerado de provincias de bajo desempeno localizadas geográficamente al norte de la Argentina y, por el otro, un conglomerado de provincias de alto desempeno que dependen fundamentalmente de la producción de bienes agropecuarios y minería y que geográficamente se encuentra en el centro-sur del país. El análisis de estos resultados evidencia que no existen mecanismos automáticos de convergencia entre las provincias argentinas. Los resultados se comparan con la evidencia precedente de convergencia económica realizados para la Argentina. ***** This paper examines the economic performance of Argentinian provinces during the period 1961-2000. Performance is defined for different economic regimes to determine the growth and output of GDP per capita during this period. The introduction of hierarchical clustering techniques enabled the detection of two main clusters of high and low performance. An examination of the evolution of the clusters showed that countries can change cluster and that the distance between clusters increases with time. The results are compared with empirical evidence for economic convergence in the Argentinian case. ***** Cette étude examine la performance économique des provinces argentines durant la période 1961-2000. La performance économique est définie a partir des différents régimes qui déterminent la croissance et le produit per capita annuel de chacune des provinces durant la période d’étude. En recourant a des techniques de clusterisation hiérarchique, on identifie les différents groupes de performance, dont on étudie l’évolution. On observe qu’il existe fondamentalement deux conglomérats réunissant chacun plusieurs provinces qui présentent des performances économiques similaires, ainsi que quelques provinces en transition qu’on ne peut rattacher a aucun des deux. D’un coté, on a un groupe de provinces a performance faible, situées dans la partie nord de l’Argentine, et de l’autre, un groupe de provinces a performance élevée, situées au centre-sud du pays, dont l’économie dépend principalement de la production de biens agricoles (cultures et élevage) et de l’activité miniere. L’analyse des résultats met en évidence l’absence de mécanismes automatiques de convergence entre les provinces argentines. Ces résultats sont comparés avec des études antérieures sur la convergence économique en Argentine.
