Abstract
ARROYO ALEJANDRE, Jesús and BRACAMONTES NEVAREZ, Joaquín. El desarrollo regional en el estado fronterizo de Sonora, México. Estud. front [online]. 2006, vol.7, n.14, pp.55-80. ISSN 2395-9134.
This work analyzes the spatial inequalities in the regional socioeconomic development of Sonora. In order to do so, a statistical model is designed and it resorts to the technique of the factorial analysis of main components which allows to estimate a Municipal Socioeconomic Development Index (IDSEM) for year 2000, which makes evident the geographic concentration of the regional development in Sonora. An econometric model was specified as well, that allowed to identify the factors that prevent or stimulate the socioeconomic development of the population in the municipalities of the State.
Keywords : population; geographic concentration; industrial structure; urbanization; Municipal Socioeconomic Development Index.
