LAS TEORÍAS DE LA COMPETITIVIDAD: UNA SÍNTESIS

Theories of competitiveness: a synthesis

La competitividad es una preocupación para todos los agentes económicos e incluso para toda una sociedad debido a su relación con el desarrollo económico, el aumento de la producción y el empleo. 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.
