Abstract

Este documento estudia la forma en que ha incidido el gasto público en la actividad económica de los departamentos en Colombia durante el periodo 2000-2013, a partir de la aplicación de diferentes técnicas derivadas de medición económica cuyos resultados se confrontan para explicar la intencionalidad de la postura fiscal de los gobiernos territoriales en sus economías. En este sentido, se desea representar cómo ha influido el gasto público en el producto regional y en qué magnitud los departamentos han aportado al PIB nacional, identificando los rasgos fiscales distintivos de dicho impacto, con el fin de explicar en qué sentido dicha asignación es eficiente para las regiones. Entre las diferentes herramientas empleadas se combinan técnicas de MCO, con aportes relativos al crecimiento, índices de localización y/o especialización del gasto público, de la formación bruta de capital fijo y del valor agregado, evaluados con su desempeno fiscal particular durante toda la serie. Los resultados muestran que las regiones que han aprovechado mejor la asignación de recursos públicos en Colombia, sin importar el nivel del gasto, han obtenido mejor desempeno de sus economías, contrario a las tesis que plantean que el gasto público por sí sólo es un dinamizador de la actividad. ****** This paper studies how public spending has affected the economic activity of the departments in Colombia during the period 2000-2013, from the application of different techniques derived from economic measurement whose results are compared to explain the intent of the fiscal stance of territorial governments in their economies. In this sense, we want to represent how it has influenced public spending on the regional product; and to what extent departments have contributed to national GDP identifying such impact´s distinctive tax traits in order to explain the reason this allocation is efficient for regions. Among the different tools used MCO techniques are combined with contributions related to growth, rates of localization and / or specialization of public expenditure, the fixed capital´s gross formation and added value. They are evaluated with its particular fiscal performance throughout the series. The results show that the regions that have better utilized the allocation of public resources in Colombia, regardless of the level of spending, they have obtained better performance of their economies, contrary to the arguments posed that public spending alone is an active catalyst
