Abstract: The aim of this paper is to present a historical series of Venezuelan GDP from 1830 to 2012. For that purpose we have employed an expenditure approach to reconstruct the GDP of Venezuela, which could be applied with advantages for others Latin America countries. We were able to identify three long economic phases for Venezuela: The first one from 1830-1924 which we refer as “agrarian economy”; the second one of oil driven development, characterize by a high velocity growth from 1924 to 1977, and the last phase portrayed as one of stagnation and decline from 1977 to 2012. El objetivo de este artículo es presentar una serie del Producto Interno Bruto de Venezuela desde 1830 hasta 2012, para lo cual se emplea el método del gasto, que podría aplicarse en otros países de la región que no cuentan con series largas de estadísticas de producción o ingresos. Se pueden identificar tres fases para la economía venezolana: de 1830 a 1924, que denominamos de «economía agraria»; de 1924 a 1977, de crecimiento rápido liderado por el petróleo, y de 1977 a 2012, de estancamiento y declive.
