The long shadow of the past : political economy of regional inequality in Colombia

We study the nature of regional inequality in Colombia over the past 200 years. The main empirical fact is that regional inequality has been highly persistent despite the large changes that have taken place and the modernization of the society. We show that regional inequality is highly correlated w...

El principal hecho empírico es que la desigualdad regional ha sido muy persistente a pesar de los grandes cambios ocurridos y la modernización de la sociedad. Mostramos que la desigualdad regional está fuertemente correlacionada con diferencias significativas al interior del país en las instituciones económicas y políticas, que también son muy persistentes a lo largo del período. Proponemos una teoría tentativa de economía política para explicar por qué la distribución de las instituciones y los resultados económicos han sido tan persistentes en el tiempo.48 páginasapplication/pdfspaUniversidad de los Andes, Facultad de Economía, CEDEDocumentos CEDE No. 22 Marzo de 2017https://ideas.repec.org/p/col/000089/015445.htmlThe long shadow of the past : political economy of regional inequality in ColombiaLa larga sombra del pasado : economía política de la desigualdad regional en ColombiaDocumento de trabajoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/workingPaperhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_8042http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85Texthttps://purl.org/redcol/resource_type/WPRegional inequalityPolitical institutionsEconomic institutionsDesigualdad económica regional - Historia - ColombiaInstituciones políticas - ColombiaInstituciones económicas - ColombiaD31, D72, D73, D78Facultad de EconomíaPublicationTHUMBNAILdcede2017-22.pdf.jpgdcede2017-22.pdf.jpgIM Thumbnailimage/jpeg10875https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/6918ae05-b634-4381-924d-fda99a7e329f/download6f0cf11b3c2db025d730f773f63955c5MD55ORIGINALdcede2017-22.pdfdcede2017-22.pdfapplication/pdf8339375https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/dd4e9e6a-39ee-48f6-b2e1-b88ea43fde55/download9b057fa4a806991134aeb40179e5fe41MD51TEXTdcede2017-22.pdf.txtdcede2017-22.pdf.txtExtracted texttext/plain101644https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/53086b98-fabe-40a7-a363-291c08f304ee/download2e7882847180eebb42405f803fd8533aMD541992/8682oai:repositorio.uniandes.edu.co:1992/86822024-06-04 15:28:15.163http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/open.accesshttps://repositorio.uniandes.edu.coRepositorio institucional Sénecaadminrepositorio@uniandes.edu.co
