    La teoría partidista establece que la ideología influye en las decisiones de los gobiernos. Esta investigación determina si la ideología de los gobiernos estatales en México repercute en las decisiones del gasto público en tres temas: servicios personales, transferencias e inversión pública. La metodología se basa en un análisis cuantitativo con datos de tipo panel con información del periodo 2001-2020. Los resultados indican que los gobiernos de izquierda presentan un mayor gasto en transferencias, mientras que los gobiernos de derecha gastan más en servicios personales. No obstante, no hay efectos en el gasto en inversión pública.

    The partisan theory argues that ideology influences on government decisions. This research determines whether the ideology of state governments in Mexico impacts on the public spending decisions in three items: personal services, transfers and public investment. The methodology is based on a quantitative analysis with information from the 2001-2020 period. The results indicate that left-wing governments spend more on transfers, while right-wing governments spend more on personal services. Nevertheless, there is no effect on public investment.
