La Dolarización De La Economía Mexicana En La Etapa De Apertura Comercial, Vicente German-Soto, Oliver J. Sifuentes Herrera Dec 2012

La Dolarización De La Economía Mexicana En La Etapa De Apertura Comercial, Vicente German-Soto, Oliver J. Sifuentes Herrera

Vicente German-Soto

Este trabajo investiga si durante la apertura comercial la dolarización de la economía mexicana ha mostrado alguna tendencia a incrementarse. La internacionalización de la economía y la concentración del comercio intraindustrial con Estados Unidos pueden dar lugar a un ‘efecto dolarización’ que, de ser importante, llevaría a una pérdida de la autonomía monetaria y cambiaria del país que puede ser preocupante. Los resultados obtenidos desde una ecuación de regresión rechazan que la dolarización esté ganando terreno, sin embargo, señalan al riesgo cambiario como uno de los factores que más influyen en la demanda de dólares.

Using state information we analyze the link among foreign investment and wage inequality in Mexico. We show the existence of an increase of the demand of qualified work, which has had major importance in the states with major reception of foreign direct investment (FDI), since also FDI tends to concentrate itself geographically. The regression results indicate that 1% of increase in the per capita foreign investment has an effect near to 6% of increase of the wage inequality. Meanwhile, when we consider only the set of states with major reception of foreign investment a negative effect of 12% is estimated.

Measurement Of The Agglomeration And The Geographic Concentration Of The Innovation Across Mexican States, Vicente German-Soto, Luis Gutiérrez Flores

Nowadays, the extent of the innovation activities for the productivity and the economic growth is evident in regional economics. A large body of theoretical and empirical evidence suggests that to achieve higher well-being levels of the population it is essential to reinforce the innovation capacity of the economies. In this work we measure the extent of agglomeration and the geographic concentration across Mexican states using an endogenous innovation approach estimated through econometric techniques. The size of the regional economies to assess the importance of the scale effects is also a central concern. Using data from the Mexican states, evidence is …

We investigate the regional income inequality within industrial sector of the Mexican states. Mexican experience in this king of studies only exists for the total economy and it suggests that these differences have been accentuated in recent dates after they have experimented one stage of reductions. The analysis is carry on during the period 1960-1998 and it is supported in spatial econometric techniques. The results indicate that regional growth of the industrial sector has been quite heterogeneous. Techniques identify a rich cluster of states in the North and another cluster of poor states in the South of the country.

Selección Empírica Para El Desarrollo Económico Regional, Vicente German-Soto

Vicente German-Soto

This work disscuses aspects linked to identification of the important sectors through the input-output coefficients for the regional levels of the economies. We base our empirical evidence in a technology structure derivated of that sectors pushing of final demand. Results reflect that a unique method method to select important sectors does not exist. An final demand index selects to commercial sector as the most important. Sectors wiht the highest index correspond to activities highly dependent of the government.
