Until fifty years ago, Argentina was richer than Spain— (This Data Insight was written by @EOrtizOspina.) In a recent Data Insight, I wrote about how Argentina was one of the richest countries in the world at the beginning of the 20th century. Today, I want to follow up with a striking comparison between Spain and Argentina. The chart shows GDP per capita for Argentina and Spain over the last two centuries. These are historical estimates from the Maddison Project, and the data is adjusted for inflation and differences in the cost of living. When Argentina declared independence from Spain in 1816, the two countries had very similar GDP per capita. By the late 19th century, Argentina had become richer than its former colonial power, and it stayed ahead for many decades. Spain then started growing faster in the 1960s, and by the mid-1970s it had caught up. Continued economic growth in Spain after the 1980s drove the large gap we see today. It kept GDP per capita on a steep upward path into the 21st century. Argentina, by contrast, grew more slowly and went through several economic crises, visible on the chart. Today, Argentina’s GDP per capita is closer to my home country of Colombia than to Western European countries like Spain. This helps us see how much of a difference economic growth can make within just a few generations.

CEPO A LAS PARITARIAS: EL GOBIERNO FIJA UN TECHO DEL 2% Y BLOQUEA ACUERDOS SALARIALES SUPERIORES Lectura rápida El Gobierno nacional fijó un límite del 2% mensual para los aumentos salariales y avisó, en reserva, a los gremios y las cámaras patronales que no homologará acuerdos que superen ese porcentaje. Reacción sindical La decisión se conoce tras una inflación de febrero del 2,9% y con varios gremios en plena negociación. Camioneros, de Hugo Moyano, aceptó subas por debajo de ese nivel y se convirtió en referencia, mientras otros sindicatos ajustan sus reclamos ante la presión oficial. (+) en Clarín: clar.in/3NKbY2F
