Abstract
En este trabajo realizado con información de nueve países latinoamericanos, se encontraron evidencias de la asociación entre crisis económica y mortalidad infantil durante las últimas décadas. En primer lugar, se hace referencias a los aportes anteriores relacionados con el tema y se constata la necesidad de más investigaciones con períodos de corto plazo. De seguido, se describe el deterioro y las desigualdades entre los países según la evolución de los indicadores socio-económicos seleccionados y la evolución del cociente de mortalidad infantil. Los hallazgos del análisis estadístico muestran que la mortalidad infantil está asociada negativamente con mudanzas económicas de corto plazo. Se observó correlación negativa y significativa entre el ritmo de decrecimiento del CMI y el crecimiento de la pobreza. El impacto de la crisis económica de los ochenta tuvo diferente intensidad entre los países considerados, siendo que la desigualdad del ingreso aparece como una de las explicaciones más plausibles.
In the present study, based on data from nine Latin American countries, we found evidence of an association between the economic crisis and infant mortality during the last decades. The paper initially review previous studies on this issue and shows the need for a greater research focus on shorter time intervals. We then describe the deterioration and unequal conditions among the countries based on trends in selected social and economic indicators and the evolution of infant mortality rates. According to our statistical analysis, infant mortality bore an inverse association to short-term economic variations. We also found a significant and negative correlation between decreasing infant mortality rates and increasing poverty. The economic crisis displayed effects of varying intensity among the countries we analyzed, with social inequality appearing as the most probable explanatory variable.
