Trabajo y crecimiento económico endógeno: un aporte al diálogo interdisciplinario

Abstract

This  paper  presents the main criticisms  to the traditional  economic  and economic development theories,  starting from the constitution  of a  new school of  economic thought, ¡.e.,  the theory of endogenous growth. With this  purpose, the author uses  a descriptive and analytical approach to the theory  of  endogenous growth and  its consequences on  the  transformation  of  the  economies.  He  also underlines  the  importance of this  new theory for the economic dynamism of developing countries, such as those  of  Latin America,  and  its applications in economic  and  social policies. Finally, the author emphasizes the new possibilities  and  the  "shortcuts to  development" provided in the contents and messages of  this  new school of  economic thought.
