Abstract
“El propósito de este documento es estimar una serie anual de los ingresos percibidos por Colombia por concepto de la exportación de drogas psicoactivas ilícitas. Para ello se utiliza la última información disponible. El trabajo consiste de dos secciones. En la primera, que se divide en cuatro sub-secciones, se hace un repaso de la literatura sobre el particular. Como primera medida se presentan algunos estimativos sobre la economía de las drogas en Colombia los cuales, no obstante su escaso rigor metodológico. En la segunda sub-sección se resumen los principales estimativos sobre la economía de las drogas efectuados por economistas colombianos. En la tercera se hace un recuento de algunos estudios sobre el impacto de la cocaína en las economías de Bolivia y Perú, en la cuarta se referencian documentos acerca del consumo de cocaína en países desarrollados. En la segunda parte del trabajo se presentan nuevos estimativos respecto de los ingresos que residentes colombianos reciben por participar en el negocio de las drogas ilícitas (DI). Por razones que se discuten más adelante, el grueso de la atención se centra en el caso de la cocaína. No es propósito del presente trabajo estudiar el impacto económico del narcotráfico. Un esfuerzo en ese sentido requiere no sólo de la medición del valor de las exportaciones de narcóticos sino también la consideración de los efectos del narcotráfico sobre el resto de actividades económicas. Tampoco se pretende medir las utilidades obtenidas y acumuladas por los narcotraficantes. El concepto que se busca aproximar es el del valor agregado por la actividad de las DI a la economía colombiana. En este trabajo se estima el ingreso de divisas apropiado por residentes colombianos.”
