MARQUEZ ALDANA, Yanod. ESTIMACIONES ECONOMÉTRICAS DEL CRECIMIENTO EN COLOMBIA MEDIANTE LA LEY DE THIRLWALL. Cuad. Econ. [online]. 2006, vol.25, n.44, pp.119-142. ISSN 0121-4772.

In Colombia there is no evidence of a direct relationship between economic growth and trade opening; on the contrary, there is evidence that Thirlwall’s Law in all its versions better explains the relationship between the external sector and growth, even though the terms of trade are not constant and equilibrium can only be assured if a total rule is used, that is, if all the accounts in the balance of payments are used. The extended models of Thirwell’s Law improve notably if capital flows are replaced by the capital accumulation variation series.

Palabras clave : Keynesian models; Neoclassical trade models; foreign trade.
