Abstract

En el desarrollo del trabajo se pretende mostrar que el ahorro no es un prerrequisito para generar riqueza mediante su canalización a la inversión. Por lo contrario, se analiza y construye un modelo cuyo principio radica en la proposición de que la riqueza no depende de la capacidad de generación de ahorro ex ante, sino de que las políticas públicas y las acciones privadas creen las condiciones propicias para la inversión productiva. En este sentido, se introduce al gasto público productivo para mostrar que éste no generará riqueza en tanto no contribuya a incrementar las oportunidades de inversión rentables, por tanto, la política de gasto público debe evitar su desperdicio en usos no rentables, como el financiamiento a un mayor consumo, público y/o privado, y en su lugar destinarse al fomento de las condiciones favorables para obtener una mayor productividad de la inversión, pública o privada, no sustitutiva.
