Resumen

El objetivo de esta investigación es examinar el vínculo causal entre el gasto público y el crecimiento económico en 112 países durante 1980-2016. Primero, utilizamos la prueba de cointegración de Pedroni (1999) y Westerlund (2007) para encontrar el equilibrio y las pruebas de Dumitrescu y Hurlin (2012) para verificar la dirección de la causalidad entre las series. Estimamos la fortaleza del vector de cointegración para países individuales a través de un modelo de Mínimos Cuadrados Ordinarios Dinámicos (DOLS) para grupos de países que utilizan un modelo de Panel Dinámico con Mínimos Cuadrados Ordinarios (PDOLS). Los resultados del modelo GLS muestran evidencia a favor de la Ley de Wagner (1877). Al aplicar la prueba de cointegración verificamos la existencia de un equilibrio a largo plazo entre las dos variables. Además, se comprobó la existencia de una causalidad unidireccional que va desde el gasto público al crecimiento económico en los países de ingresos altos, medios altos y bajos y, causalidad bidireccional en los países de ingresos bajos y extremadamente bajos.
