Public infrastructure and its importance for economic growth: the case of Oaxaca (Mexico)

The objective of this paper is to estimate the impact of public infrastructure on economic growth in the eight regions of Oaxaca for the period 2003-2013. Given that regional statistics are lacking, the methodology proposed by Gerber (2003) is used to calculate the economic growth of the regions. An...

Given that regional statistics are lacking, the methodology proposed by Gerber (2003) is used to calculate the economic growth of the regions. And to measure the impact of infrastructure on growth, based on Hoechle (2007) a fixed-effects model with standard errors of Driscoll and Kraay (DKSE) is applied. The results indicate that investment in infrastructure has been insufficient and misallocated; however, the social infrastructure shows the greatest impact on growth. Finally, the results suggest that the most dynamic regions require greater investment in economic infrastructure, while the backward regions need social infrastructure.El objetivo del presente trabajo es estimar el impacto de la infraestructura pública sobre el crecimiento económico en las ocho regiones de Oaxaca para el periodo 2003-2013. Dado que se carecen de estadísticas, se emplea la metodología propuesta por Gerber (2003) para calcular el crecimiento económico de las regiones. Y para medir el impacto de la infraestructura en el crecimiento, con base en Hoechle (2007) se aplica un modelo de efectos fijos con errores estándar de Driscoll y Kraay (DKSE). Los resultados indican que la inversión en infraestructura ha sido insuficiente y mal asignada; la infraestructura social es la que muestra mayor impacto en el crecimiento; por último, los resultados sugieren que las regiones más dinámicas requieren de una mayor inversión en infraestructura económica, mientras que las regiones atrasadas necesitan de infraestructura social.application/pdfengUniversidad EAFIThttp://publicaciones.eafit.edu.co/index.php/ecos-economia/article/view/public-infrastructure-and-its-importance-for-economic-growth-the-case-of-oaxacahttp://publicaciones.eafit.edu.co/index.php/ecos-economia/article/view/public-infrastructure-and-its-importance-for-economic-growth-the-case-of-oaxacaCopyright (c) 2018 Luis Enrique Rojas Ramírez, Alejandro Molina VargasAcceso abiertohttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2instname:Universidad EAFITreponame:Repositorio Institucional Universidad EAFITEcos de Economía: A Latin American Journal of Applied Economics; Vol 22, No 46 (2018)Ecos de Economía: A Latin American Journal of Applied Economics; Vol 22, No 46 (2018)C23H54R11Panel dataInfrastructureRegional economic growthDatos panelInfraestructuraCrecimiento económico regionalPublic infrastructure and its importance for economic growth: the case of Oaxaca (Mexico)Infraestructura pública y su importancia para el crecimiento económico: El caso de Oaxaca (México)info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionarticlepublishedVersionArtículohttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1Rojas Ramírez, Luis EnriqueMolina Vargas, AlejandroFacultad Latinoamericana de Ciencias Sociales - FlacsoUniversidad Autónoma MetropolitanaEcos de Economía: A Latin American Journal of Applied Economics2246427ecos.econ.ORIGINAL1.pdf1.pdfTexto completo PDFapplication/pdf451478https://repository.eafit.edu.co/bitstreams/4d853ae0-e342-4563-8d18-c922fd3723d4/download420a087762bcb54c85ba418189e46fdfMD51articulo.htmlarticulo.htmlTexto completo HTMLtext/html452https://repository.eafit.edu.co/bitstreams/382d484a-cbd3-4a7b-b3f6-0231314a97ed/downloadd761295a73f2f98bff9a57d2c1769111MD53THUMBNAILminaitura-ecos_Mesa de trabajo 1.jpgminaitura-ecos_Mesa de trabajo 1.jpgimage/jpeg251248https://repository.eafit.edu.co/bitstreams/88493f77-2df0-44fb-aa4a-f4defad59ce2/download9b15d674b076c1793a0bc25cebb1bcefMD5210784/13120oai:repository.eafit.edu.co:10784/131202020-03-18 11:47:42.552open.accesshttps://repository.eafit.edu.coRepositorio Institucional Universidad EAFITrepositorio@eafit.edu.co
