Abstract
A partir de la comparación con un conjunto de países desarrollados (Estados Unidos, Francia, Italia, Japón y España), encontramos que dichas variables presentan desde mediados de la década del setenta una evolución particularmente llamativa: la productividad crece a un ritmo inferior –incluso con momentos de caída o estancamiento– y el salario real retrocede marcadamente.
En este marco, discutimos la explicación según la cual el empobrecimiento de los trabajadores argentinos es el resultado del proceso de desindustrialización sufrido –aunque sus indicadores se verifican con similar intensidad en aquellos países–, cambiando el eje hacia el débil desempeño de la productividad -y la consecuente ampliación de su brecha relativa–, que implica mayores costos para las empresas, que deben ser compensados con fuentes extraordinarias de ganancia. Una de ellas es, claro está, el salario real, de modo que el empobrecimiento de los trabajadores en Argentina resulta una pieza necesaria en el marco de la forma que adopta el proceso económico.
This paper analyses the performance of the Argentine economy since the 1950s, through the analysis of the functional distribution of income and its components –real wage and productivity– for the economy and especially the manufacturing sector.
Through comparisons with a group of developed countries (France, Italy, Japan and Spain, USA), we find that those variables have a striking evolution: the productivity grows at an inferior rate –including periods of stagnation– and the real wage falls dramatically.
We then challenge the existing explanation of the impoverishment of the Argentine working class: the decline of our manufacturing sector. Since Argentinean indicators are no different than those of other countries, we emphasize the weak performance of the productivity –and the growth of the relative gap- that means higher costs for the firms, that must be compensated with extraordinary sources of profit. One of them is the real wage, and therefore the impoverishment of Argentine workers is a necessary piece of the economic process.
