Abstract

Resumen En el presente estudio se tratará de medir el impacto que la corrupción tiene sobre el crecimiento de las regiones españolas. A falta de medidas adecuadas, la primera parte del estudio se dedica a la construcción de una medida de corrupción que recoja las diferencias en las Comunidades Autónomas durante el periodo 1980-1994. Tras analizar los resultados, se realiza una extensión de un modelo clásico de crecimiento de manera que incluya corrupción. Por último se pasa a estimar por distintos métodos la especi…cación de la ecuación derivada del modelo anterior. * Quiero agradecerle a Samuel Bentolila su excelente dirección en éste, mi primer trabajo empírico. A Juanjo Ganuza y Josep Pijoan sus orientaciones y sugerencias, y al resto de profesores del CEMFI los comentarios que han realizado en las sesiones de presentación. También a Maria Jesús Delgado por facilitarme los datos de infraestructuras.

Standard cross-national measures of corruption are assembled through surveys. We propose a novel alternative objective measure that consists of the difference between a measure of the physical quantities of public infrastructure and the cumulative price government pays for public capital stocks. Where the difference is larger between the monies spent and the existing physical infrastructure, more money is being siphoned off to mismanagement, fraud, bribes, kickbacks, and embezzlement; that is, corruption is greater. We create this measure for Italy's 95 provinces and 20 regions as of the mid-1990s, controlling at the regional level for possible differences in the costs of public construction.
