Abstract
El objetivo de este trabajo es doble. Primero se presentan estimaciones cuantitativas de distorsiones en los mercados de factores y se simula su impacto sobre el empleo, utilizando una simple ecuación de comportamiento de equilibrio parcial. En segundo lugar se provee una estimation agregada de la magnitud de la pérdida de eficiencia atribuída a distorsiones en el mercado de factores y en el de bienes. El análisis comprende el sector manufacturera argentino y las estimaciones son comparadas con estimaciones similares para otros países latinoamericanos. Los resultados obtenidos sugieren que en Argentina, las distorsiones inducidas por la politica económica redujeron las oportunidades de empleo de manera significativa, y que también dieron lugar a pérdidas de eficiencia alarmantes.
