El artículo ofrece una visión general de las principales teorías desde la ventaja comparativa hasta las teorías de la ventaja competitiva y las nuevas teorías de la competitividad y el comercio internacional. Se empleó el método cualitativo/cuantitativo y técnicas de análisis documental sobre fuentes secundarias de información. Se concluye que los rendimientos constantes y la competencia perfecta determinan la competitividad en las teorías tradicionales, mientras que los rendimientos crecientes y la competencia imperfecta caracterizan la competitividad en los nuevos enfoques.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[ABSTRACT Competitiveness is a concern for all economic agents and even for an entire society due to its relationship with economic development, increased production, and employment. The paper offers an overview of the main theories from the comparative advantage to the theories of competitive advantage and the new theories of competitiveness and international trade. The qualitative/ quantitative method was used with a documentary analysis technique from secondary sources of information. It concludes that constant returns and perfect competition determine competitiveness in traditional theories, whereas increasing returns and imperfect competition characterize competitiveness in the new approaches.]]></p></abstract>
