Theoretical and empirical evidence on the bidirectional connection between health and economic growth

The concern of economists and health economists to explore the probable links between health, productivity, economic growth and welfare dates from the 60s. Then, T. Schultz (1959) created the term "human capital." and his research was followed by G. Becker's (1964). In the following d...

Schultz (1959), seguido de Becker (1964), algunos de los primeros investigadores en este campo. Luego aparecieron economistas como Grossman (1972) y Barro (1996) quienes tuvieron el propósito de confirmar de manera empírica la intuición que se tenía sobre la bidireccionalidad entre la salud y el crecimiento. Propusieron y desarrollaron nuevos modelos desde la teoría del crecimiento endógeno, y con un nuevo enfoque, en el sentido de concebir la salud en su doble función de consumo e inversión y considerar además que la salud es un importante determinante del ingreso y el crecimiento de un país.application/pdfspaUniversidad Católica de Pereirahttps://revistas.ucp.edu.co/index.php/paginas/article/view/2054/1907Derechos de autor 2010 Revista Páginashttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/deed.es_EShttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/deed.es_ESinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesshttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2Revista Páginas; Núm. 87 (Ago., 2010); 23-340121-1633Theoretical and empirical evidence on the bidirectional connection between health and economic growthAntecedentes de evidencias teóricas y empíricas asociación bidireccional entre la salud y el crecimiento económicoArtículo de revistahttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionGil Ospina, ArmandoPublication10785/10764oai:repositorio.ucp.edu.co:10785/107642025-01-27 14:16:19.26https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/deed.es_ESDerechos de autor 2010 Revista Páginasmetadata.onlyhttps://repositorio.ucp.edu.coRepositorio Institucional de la Universidad Católica de Pereira - RIBUCbdigital@metabiblioteca.com
