          Abstract

          Se examina la ley de Wagner y la hipótesis keynesiana para el caso de México durante el periodo 1950-2009. La primera establece que el crecimiento del gasto público se explica como resultado de la actividad económica, mientras que la segunda postula lo contrario. Para tal fin se estiman tres diferentes especificaciones propuestas, respectivamente, por: 1) Peacock y Wiseman (1961), 2) Musgrave (1969) y 3) Gupta (1967) y Michas (1975). Los resultados encontrados revelan que las dos primeras especificaciones muestran evidencia a favor de la ley de Wagner, lo cual tiende a reforzarse por la dirección de las pruebas de causalidad efectuadas a los modelos de vectores autorregresivos (VAR) estimados.

          Translated abstract

          This article examines Wagner's law and Keynesian theory for the case of Mexico from 1950 to 2009. Wagner's law stipulates that growth in public expenditures is explained as the result of economic activity, while the Keynesian hypothesis in this area puts forward the opposite view. To analyze these two positions, the authors use three different specifications proposed by: 1) Peacock and Wiseman (1961), 2) Musgrave (1969), and 3) Gupta (1967) and Michas (1975). The results reveal that the first two specifications show evidence in favor of Wagner's law, which tends to be reinforced by the direction of the causality tests done to estimated vector autoregression models.
