Abstract
ESCALANTE SEMERENA, Roberto I. and LUGO OLMOS, Igor. Relación entre el crecimiento económico y las economías externas de aglomeración en México. Prob. Des [online]. 2005, vol.36, n.141, pp.131-153. ISSN 0301-7036.
The aim here is to explain the movement of growing national yields to scale of production. The objective of the study involves studying and measuring the impact of urbanization on the country's economic growth. As a major theoretical line the contributions of endogenous growth were used, where the element of externality is added to the main factors of production, capital and labor. The principal scientific contribution of this work centers on the study of cluster economies, which account for the nature and measurement of externalities by means of various econometric techniques. The data used in the time-series, in the case of Mexico, provide a methodological option for carrying out an analysis of externalities in aggregate form which had not been done in the national and international economic communities.
