Abstract

El comercio intraindustrial (CII) es un componente creciente del comercio mundial, especialmente en los países desarrollados, que genera menos efectos redistributivos y menores demandas de protección. En este tipo de países, la evidencia empírica acerca de sus determinantes es amplia, pero no sucede lo mismo para los países latinoamericanos. Este trabajo estima una ecuación de gravedad para explicar los determinantes nacionales del comercio de doble vía en Argentina, utilizando datos de panel. Los resultados muestran que la complejidad de la demanda, el tamaño del mercado del socio comercial y la existencia de lazos culturales comunes impactan de manera positiva en el CII, mientras que la distancia geográfica y la concentración del comercio en pocos productos lo hacen de forma negativa. Esto constituye un aporte empírico original en el caso de Argentina, y los resultados podrían también ser relevantes para otros países de la región. / Intra-industry trade (IIT) is a growing component of world trade, especially in developed countries. It generates less redistributive effects and lower demands for protection. In these countries, the empirical evidence on its determinants is wide, but it is not the case for Latin American countries. In this paper a gravity equation is estimated using panel data in order to find the national determinants of the two-way trade in Argentina. The results show that IIT is positively related to the demand complexity of the trading partner and its market size as well as the existence of common cultural ties. Besides, it is negatively related to geographical distance and trade concentration. This is a unique empirical contribution to the Argentinean case, and it may also be relevant for other countries in the region.
