Abstract

Este artículo pretende mostrar la importancia de los elementos de equilibrio general y economía política en el análisis de las políticas gubernamentales de desarrollo económico, partiendo de lo expuesto en el artículo de Acemoglu (2010) y tomando como caso la Ley de Convertibilidad en Argentina durante los anos 1991-2001. Para ello, se explorarán datos asociados a los indicadores macroeconómicos de Argentina para analizar tendencias que permitan dilucidar avances, retrocesos o estancamientos en sus desempenos, según el objetivo de la implementación de la ley, de los cuales el más importante era estabilizar las tendencias históricas inflacionarias que presentaba la nación. Ciertamente, este fue el elemento con mejor desempeno llegando a niveles mínimos históricos. Sin embargo, datos como el desempleo, el crecimiento económico, la movilidad de capitales y la pobreza sufrieron retrocesos. ****** This article aims to show the importance of the elements of general equilibrium and political economy in the analysis of government economic development policies, based on the article by Acemoglu (2010) and taking as a case the Convertibility Law in Argentina during 1991-2001. To do this, data associated with the macroeconomic indicators of Argentina are explored to analyze trends that allow to clarify advances, setbacks or stagnations in their performances, according to the objective of the implementation of the law, of which the most important was to stabilize historical inflationary trends that the nation presented. Certainly, this was the element with the best performance reaching historical minimum levels. However, data such as unemployment, economic growth, capital mobility and poverty suffered setbacks.
