| dc.description | En las últimas décadas, las iniciativas políticas que implican el aumento del impuesto sobre el tabaco han aumentado la presión sobre las asignaciones presupuestarias en los hogares pobres. En este estudio, examinamos esta cuestión en el contexto de la expansión del estado de bienestar social que ha tenido lugar en las dos últimas décadas en varias economías emergentes. Este estudio explora el caso de Colombia entre 1997 y 2011. En este período, la proporción del presupuesto del quintil de gasto más pobre dedicado a los productos del tabaco de los hogares de los fumadores se duplicó. Analizamos las diferencias entre los quintiles más pobres y más ricos en relación con los cambios en las cuotas presupuestarias, fijando una población de referencia a lo largo del tiempo para evitar los factores de confusión de la composición demográfica. No encontramos evidencias de desplazamiento de los gastos de educación o de sanidad. Es probable que esto sea el resultado del acceso universal y gratuito a los seguros sanitarios y a la educación básica para los pobres. En el caso de los hogares con mayores ingresos, el tabaco desplaza el gasto en entretenimiento, actividades de ocio y gastos de lujo. Esta conclusión debería tranquilizar a los responsables políticos que están dispuestos a imponer impuestos al tabaco como elemento de su política de salud pública. | es |
| dc.description.abstract | In recent decades, policy initiatives involving increases in the tobacco tax have increased pressure on budget allocations in poor households. In this study, we examine this issue in the context of the expansion of the social welfare state that has taken place over the last two decades in several emerging economies. This study explores the case of Colombia between 1997 and 2011. In this period, the budget share of the poorest expenditure quintile devoted to tobacco products of smoker’s households doubled. We analyse the differences between the poorest and richest quintiles in relation to the changes in budget shares, fixing a reference population over time to avoid demographic composition confounders. We find no evidence of crowding-out of education, or healthcare expenditures. This is likely to be the result of free universal access to health insurance and basic education for the poor. For higher income households, tobacco crowds-out expenditures on entertainment, leisure activities, and luxury expenditures. This finding should reassure policy-makers who are keen to impose tobacco taxes as an element of their public health policy. | es |
