Abstract

A fin de explorar la consistencia teórica del concepto de desarrollo económico de Alfred Marshall, se revista aquí el estado del arte sobre categorías centrales para su fundamentación. En este sentido, se presentan discusiones sobre tres nociones principales: los rendimientos crecientes a escala, las condiciones competitivas y el principio de la demanda efectiva. Ello implica considerar, primero, la perspectiva microeconómica sobre la teoría del valor bajo el equilibrio estático en condiciones competitivas con rendimientos crecientes a escala; segundo, la perspectiva macroeconómica, sustentada en el principio de la demanda efectiva, así como la vinculación entre ambas dimensiones de análisis con la temática central de la distribución del ingreso. Estas nociones teóricas fundamentan la concepción del desarrollo económico del autor, así como, más precisamente, la política económica de estímulo a la inserción industrial en el comercio exterior, a fin de proveer empleo estable en un contexto de acelerados cambios en la técnica y la demanda, y la mejora del salario real asociada al incremento de la productividad y la distribución progresiva del ingreso.
