Abstract

Neste artigo, procuramos descrever a evolução do stock de capital físico em Portugal ao longo do Século XX, tendo em conta alguns dos seus determinantes, nomeadamente, a envolvente económica e institucional, a propensão a poupar e os preços relativos. Os cálculos efectuados revelam algumas inconsistências entre as séries estatísticas disponíveis. Confrontando a evolução da dotação relativa capital-físico/capital humano em Portugal com a verificada em outros países da OCDE, argumentamos que, não obstante na segunda metade do século XX Portugal ter registado uma taxa de investimento muito elevada, tal não terá resultado em acumulação excessiva de capital.
