Resumo

Este estudio presenta un análisis exploratorio sobre la correlación entre la fortaleza institucional, las condiciones de paz, y el emprendimiento en una muestra de 23 departamentos en Colombia usando datos de 2014. Para llevar a cabo este objetivo se propusieron y construyeron tres índices siguiendo definiciones conceptuales seminales o estándares de evaluación internacional, a saber: 1) El Índice de Fortaleza Institucional, 2) El Índice de Construcción de Paz (construido a partir del índice de paz negativa y el índice de paz positiva) y 3) El Índice de Emprendimiento Productivo. Los resultados no muestran una correlación significativa entre todos los tres índices. Por un lado, existe una correlación significativa (p<0.05) entre los índices de fortaleza institucional y emprendimiento productivo. Por otro lado, existen correlaciones negativas no significativas entre los índices de paz positiva y fortaleza institucional, emprendimiento productivo y paz positiva y emprendimiento productivo y construcción de paz. En un segundo acercamiento, la población de los departamentos fue la variable con mayor número de correlaciones significativas (p<0.01) entre variables relacionadas con emprendimiento productivo, empleo, producto interno bruto, sofisticación industrial, innovación (patentes) y crimen. Finalmente, se discuten las conclusiones y las futuras investigaciones.

This study presents an exploratory analysis on the correlation among institutional strength, peacefulness, and entrepreneurship on a sample of 23 departments in Colombia using data of 2014. To achieve this purpose, three indexes were proposed and constructed based on seminal-conceptual definitions or international assessment standards, namely: 1) Institutional Strength Index, 2) Building Peace Index (based on Negative Peace Index and Positive Peace Index), and 3) Productive Entrepreneurship Index. The results do not show a significant correlation among all three indexes. On the one hand, there is a significant correlation (p<0.05) between the Institutional Strength Index and the Productive Entrepreneurship Index. On the other hand, there are non-significant negative correlations between Positive Peace Index and Institutional Strength Index, Productive Entrepreneurship Index and Positive Peace Index, and Productive Entrepreneurship Index and Building Peace Index. In a second look, department’s population was the measure with the higher number of significant correlations (p<0.01) among variables related to productive entrepreneurship, employment, Gross Domestic Product, industrial sophistication, innovation (patents), and crime. Finally, conclusions and future research are discussed.
