Abstract

Este escrito analiza la hipótesis de convergencia y el impacto de las políticas sociales en el crecimiento económico de los seis países más grandes de América Latina entre 1980 y 2010. Los resultados indican que las políticas sociales han influido en el crecimiento económico de esos países. De manera más precisa, existen variables no observables (efectos fijos) que afectaron positivamente el crecimiento de Venezuela y Chile, y factores no observables que afectaron negativamente a Brasil y México. Se encontró, además, que la velocidad de convergencia disminuye cuando aumenta el nivel de ingresos, lo que podría indicar que estos países pueden estar convergiendo a sus estados estacionarios.
