          Abstract

          Resumo Este trabalho explica a dolarização financeira e sua persistência para 79 economias com diferentes graus de desenvolvimento, utilizando o arcabouço teórico pós-keynesiano. A proposição é a de que a busca por moeda externa forte em períodos de boom e de escassez de Liquidez Externa varia de acordo com a categoria minskyana dos países, pois as oscilações dos capitais externos provocam efeitos distintos sobre a Preferência pela Liquidez em países hedge e em países speculative-ponzi. Uma menor disponibilidade de recursos externos para as economias mais vulneráveis causa um aumento na Preferência pela Liquidez dos seus agentes, gerando elevação no grau de sua dolarização financeira. Assim, em períodos de queda na liquidez internacional as economias speculative-ponzi aumentam sua demanda por moeda externa forte, que serve para compra de ativos e para proteção contra incertezas, resultado este não encontrado para economias hedge. Ademais, a persistência da dolarização é explicada pelo alto nível de endividamento presente em economias mais vulneráveis externamente.

          Abstract This contribution addresses the causes of the financial dollarization of countries according to the post-Keynesian view. It shows that the demand for strong currency depends on the country's Minskian category (hedge, speculative and ponzi) and is affected by the changes in international liquidity (cycles of the international financial market). This happens because changes in international liquidity affect, at different levels of intensity, the liquidity preference in hedge, speculative and ponzi economies. The speculative and ponzi economies show a high level of financial dollarization when there is a fall in international liquidity. This result was not found for the hedge economies. Moreover, the persistence of financial dollarization even after a fall in inflation is explained by the high level of government debt in countries that present a high level of external vulnerability. These conclusions are empirically conformed by means of estimating a dynamic panel data model for 79 countries during the 1993-2006 period.
