Abstract: La crisis financiera colombiana de fin de siglo se enmarca en un período de turbulencia internacional; síntoma del creciente grado de globalización e interrelación de las economías nacionales del mundo. Las causas de la crisis han sido ampliamente debatidas y este escrito busca aportar a tal discusión desde las teorías de John Maynard Keynes y Murray Rothbard; grandes exponentes de dos importantes corrientes de pensamiento económico. En este trabajo se analiza la interacción de factores reales y monetarios desde dos marcos conceptuales distintos sin pretender hacer una crítica a priori. Se concluye que, a pesar de que los dos autores raramente coinciden, la pluralidad en el análisis es crucial para entender el desarrollo de la crisis financiera. *** The Colombian financial crisis that occurred at the turn of the century is framed in a period of international turbulence, a symptom of the rising degree of the globalization process and the interpenetration of national economies around the world. The crisis’ causes have been broadly debated and this essay intends to contribute to such discussion from the theories of John Maynard Keynes and Murray Rothbard; prominent exponents of two important currents of economic thought. In this work, real and monetary factors are analyzed from two distinct theoretical frameworks without the intent of criticizing those in an aprioristic way. I conclude that, in spite of there being few common points between the two authors, the plurality in the analysis is critical if one wants to fully understand the development of the financial crisis.
