Resumen

Los modelos de Segunda Generación de Federalismo Fiscal consideran los efectos de equidad (equity) y eficiencia de las transferencias federales en sistemas fiscales descentralizados (Oates, 2005), así como los incentivos de los gobiernos locales para generar prosperidad en las regiones a partir de inversión pública (Weingast, 2009). Las transferencias pueden afectar negativamente el desempeño de las administraciones públicas al promover gastos desvinculados a sus ingresos propios. A partir de medidas de productividad extraídas de un índice de Malmquist este trabajo investiga la relación que guarda el entorno fiscal federal con la productividad, la eficiencia y el cambio técnico de las administraciones públicas estatales en México de 2003 a 2013.
