Abstract

En este artículo Lauchlin Currie aclara la teoría macroeconómica de los “rendimientos crecientes” de Allyn Young, quien tanto influyó en sus propuestas de política para Colombia. Esta teoría se deriva del énfasis de Adam Smith en que la competencia y la movilidad amplían el tamaño de la demanda recíproca y real (diferenciada claramente de la demanda monetaria inflacionaria). De esto surge, endógenamente, la mayor especialización como fuente primordial de crecimiento autosostenido, por la difusión recíproca de economías externas. En cambio, otras teorías endógenas enfatizan las economías de escala internas y los mayores insumos de trabajo y capital –cuyas contribuciones se miden por sus ingresos–, el progreso técnico impulsado por el proteccionismo y las ganancias monopólicas.
