QUÉ SIGNIFICA SECOND BEST EN INGLÉS

Teoría del segundo mejor

Theory of the second best

En la economía del bienestar, la teoría de la segunda mejor se refiere a lo que sucede cuando una o más condiciones de optimalidad no pueden ser satisfechas. El economista canadiense Richard Lipsey y el economista australiano Kelvin Lancaster mostraron en un artículo de 1956 que si una condición de optimalidad en un modelo económico no puede ser satisfecha, es posible que la mejor solución siguiente cambie otras variables lejos de los valores que de otra manera serían óptimos. Esto significa que en una economía con una falla del mercado incobrable en un sector, las acciones para corregir las fallas del mercado en otro sector relacionado con la intención de aumentar la eficiencia económica en general puede reducirla. En teoría, por lo menos, puede ser mejor dejar que dos imperfecciones del mercado se cancelen mutuamente en lugar de hacer un esfuerzo para arreglar cualquiera de las dos. Por lo tanto, puede ser óptimo para el gobierno para intervenir de una manera que es contraria a la política habitual. Esto sugiere que los economistas necesitan estudiar los detalles de la situación antes de saltar a la conclusión basada en la teoría de que una mejora en la perfección del mercado en un área implica una mejora global en la eficiencia.

In welfare economics, the theory of the second best concerns what happens when one or more optimality conditions cannot be satisfied. Canadian economist Richard Lipsey and Australian economist Kelvin Lancaster showed in a 1956 paper that if one optimality condition in an economic model cannot be satisfied, it is possible that the next-best solution involves changing other variables away from the values that would otherwise be optimal. This means that in an economy with some uncorrectable market failure in one sector, actions to correct market failures in another related sector with the intent of increasing overall economic efficiency may actually decrease it. In theory, at least, it may be better to let two market imperfections cancel each other out rather than making an effort to fix either one. Thus, it may be optimal for the government to intervene in a way that is contrary to usual policy. This suggests that economists need to study the details of the situation before jumping to the theory-based conclusion that an improvement in market perfection in one area implies a global improvement in efficiency.
