Abstract

En el presente artículo se estima la magnitud de los recursos monetarios que pierde o deja de producir Chile debido al tráfico y consumo de drogas ilícitas. Sobre la base de la metodología de "costo de enfermedad", se obtiene que la carga económica que representó para Chile el consumo de drogas ilícitas en el año 2006 alcanzó a los 266.744 millones de pesos -es decir, 503 millones de dólares en moneda corriente de dicho año- equivalentes al 0,45% del producto internobruto (PIB); de 2006 y a un costo per cápita de 16.232 pesos o 31 dólares. La mayor proporción de este monto se atribuye al control de delitos de drogas u otros cometidos por su causa (47%); y a las reducciones de productividad ocasionadas por años de vida saludable perdidos (46%);.
