Resumen
Este trabajo explora la relación entre desempeño institucional y corrupción en los municipios de Colombia. La evidencia sugiere que esta relación es inversa y más aún, que instituciones débiles causan corrupción. Para este diagnóstico se realizaron estimaciones por mínimos cuadrados ordinarios y por variables instrumentales, utilizando cuatro medidas diferentes de corrupción. Así mismo, se utilizó una medición histórica de instituciones como instrumento del desempeño institucional actual. Los resultados por variables instrumentales son robustos a varias medidas de corrupción, y dejan una evidencia importante en la relación de ambos fenómenos. El documento también hace una revisión de los avances hechos en la literatura económica en este tema y presenta un marco conceptual del mismo.
Abstract This work explores the relationship between institutions and corruption in municipalities of Colombia. Evidence suggests that this is an inverse relationship, and even more, that poor institutions cause corruption. Both ordinary least squares and instrumental variables estimations were made for this work, using four different measures of corruption. An historic measure of institutions was used as instrument of current institutions. The results of instrumental variables estimation were robust for most measures of corruption, showing important evidence of the relationship between corruption and institutions. This document also presents a literature review on this topic, and presents a theoretical approach of the issue..
