El sistema legal colombiano no fue capaz de hacer eficiente ni transparente la contratación pública, que transcurre en un ambiente institucional caracterizado por los altos costos de transacción. La ley colombiana complica las cosas aun más con el principio del equilibrio económico de los contratos, que aumenta la contratación incompleta y dificulta el uso de los incentivos económicos para controlar el oportunismo de los agentes económicos. Los autores formulan la hipótesis de que el principio del equilibrio económico contribuye a aumentar la litigación en la contratación pública. Se hace la prueba empírica de la hipótesis. En la primera sección se hace el resumen de la literatura económica sobre los costos de transacción y el contrato incompleto, así como la literatura jurídica sobre el origen histórico del principio del equilibrio económico de los contratos. La segunda sección describe la metodología del estudio empírico. La tercera presenta la evidencia empírica de los efectos que ejerce el principio del equilibrio sobre la contratación pública.
