Abstract

El presente artículo analiza la relación entre política fiscal, derecho a la educación y la equidad territorial en el financiamiento de las universidades públicas estatales mexicanas, con especial referencia a la Universidad Autónoma de Nayarit (UAN). Se emplea un enfoque cuantitativo-comparativo de diseño transversal para el periodo 2019-2022 mediante tres indicadores: subsidio total per cápita, variación anual e índice de Gini. Los resultados evidencian disparidades persistentes en la distribución de recursos, alta volatibilidad presupuestal en varias universidades públicas estatales y ausencia de mecanismos redistributivos efectivos. Se argumenta que dichas asimetrías vulneran el principio de equidad territorial y restringen la progresividad del derecho a la educación superior. Se propone un modelo de política fiscal orientado a la planeación plurianual y la asignación equitativa de subsidios, como referencia para fortalecer la transparencia y la justicia territorial en el sistema universitario mexicano.
