Abstract

Resumen El artículo analiza los factores que incentivan el comercio exportador del sector textil-confección en Colombia y en especial en el departamento del Atlántico. La metodología usada es el análisis de la teoría económica referente al comercio internacional. Además, se utilizan dos modelos gravitacionales para hallar los factores que determinan el comercio exportador del sector. Los resultados fueron: factores comunes entre socios como idioma, el país colonizador y el tamano de la economía impulsan el sector. Los acuerdos comerciales no son determinantes para las exportaciones en el Atlántico; sin embargo, para Colombia es significativo estadísticamente. Abstract The research studies the variables that encourage the export trading of the textile and clothing sector in Colombia and the department of the Atlántico. The methodology used is the analysis of international trade economic theory. Further, two gravity models are used for estimate the factors that determine the export the sector. The results are common factors among partners such as language; the colonizer country and the size of the economy drive the sector. Trade agreements are not decisive for exports in the Atlantic; however, for Colombia it is statistically significant.
