Abstract
Cross-country comparison is critical to understand the success of some regions and the stagnation of others in Latin America. This study measures regional competitiveness using a set of comparable regional indicators for Chile, Colombia, and Mexico in the 2008-2017 period and through a model that separates input competitiveness from results competitiveness (Aiginger and Firgo, 2017). The measurement allows comparison of regional competitiveness across countries. Results show that high regions with higher input competitiveness yield higher progress in competitiveness results for the studied period and that competitiveness capabilities play a major role in population well-being.
期刊介绍：
La revista Investigaciones Regionales nace con el objeto de abrir un nuevo cauce a la publicación de los resultados de los estudios relativos a los temas regionales, tanto en España como en otros países europeos y latinoamericanos Se ha creado con el apoyo de la Asociación Española de Ciencia Regional, cuya actual Junta Directiva incluyó este proyecto entre los compromisos a cumplir durante su mandato. La Revista tendrá, sin embargo, independencia en todo cuanto se refiere a sus contenidos y a su orientación científica, cuya responsabilidad recaerá plenamente en el Director y el Consejo de Redacción.
