Crecimiento económico y medio ambiente (crisis financiera y crisis ambiental)
En este punto, una primera idea es considerar la teoría del crecimiento económico
tradicional y su evolución más reciente (modelos endógenos). En segundo lugar, se
hace una breve reflexión sobre el concepto de convergencia económica (sigma y
beta). Una vez planteados los modelos originales la idea es intentar introducir la
variable ambiental en el análisis para de esa forma considerar cuál es la perspectiva de
la economía neoclásica sobre los temas ambientales.
En este punto la idea es trabajar sobre la relación entre crisis financiera y su conexión
ambiental.
Ejercicio: Elaborar un breve ensayo vinculado estadísticas de crecimiento y de medio
ambiente para una economía determinada tratando de identificar debilidades y fortalezas.
