Abstract
Los Recursos Naturales (en adelante RRNN) han tenido históricamente una valoración dispar como agentes de desarrollo para los países. A partir de ello, la tesis revisa qué posibilidades y limitaciones enfrenta el caso de Chile en su avance hacia el desarrollo, tomando en cuenta que en las últimas décadas ha basado de modo importante su modelo de desarrollo en la explotación de RRNN, especialmente mineros. Síntesis de la investigación Esta tesis tiene como objetivo analizar el rol de los RRNN –en particular la actividad minera- en el desarrollo de Chile con énfasis en la última parte del siglo XX y comienzos del siglo XXI, considerando la situación actual de los RRNN en Chile y de la economía internacional. La hipótesis central de la tesis es que el desarrollo económico de Chile en base a recursos naturales será posible en la medida que se logre avanzar desde una primera etapa de desarrollo acelerado hacia una siguiente etapa donde el impulso provenga de una mayor complejidad (sofisticación) productiva. Por consiguiente el objetivo general será determinar el rol de los recursos naturales en el logro del desarrollo económico y social de un país, mediante un análisis comparado de casos donde la dotación de recursos naturales sea, o haya sido, considerado un factor clave en su nivel de desarrollo, de manera de determinar su aplicabilidad y pertinencia para el modelo chileno. El diseño de investigación es Descriptivo, ya que recolecta datos que permiten describir una situación o fenómeno tal cual es, identificando dimensiones y elementos que lo caracterizan. Y en términos de tiempo, es Transversal, pues recoge los datos en un solo momento temporal dado, y no su evolución en el tiempo...
Natural Resources (NR hereafter) have historically had a mixed assessment as agents of development for countries. From this perspective, the research analyses the possibilities and limitations that Chile in its progress towards development, taking into account the recent decades in which Chile has extensively based its development model in the exploitation of NR, especially through mining. Summary This research aims to analyse the role of NR (particularly mining), in the development of Chile with emphasis on the latter part of the twentieth century and early twenty-first century, considering the current situation of NR in Chile and the international economy. The central hypothesis of this research is that, in the case of Chile, economic development based on natural resources will be possible to the extent that progress can be made from a first stage of accelerated development but with strong lag (since the eighties to present), to a next stage where the impulse comes from greater complexity (sophistication) production. Therefore, the overall objective is to determine the role of natural resources in the achievement of economic and social development of a country, through the comparison with other cases where natural resources endowment is or has been considered a key factor in their development level. This analysis is crucial to determine the applicability and relevance to the case of Chile. The research approach is descriptive. It collects data that serve to describe a situation or phenomenon as it is and, at the same time, it identifies dimensions and elements that characteristic of it. From a time perspective, it is a cross-section analysis since it collects data in a single time point, and not its evolution over time...
