PUYANA MUTIS, Alicia  and  ROMERO TELLAECHE, José Antonio. La maquila (fragmentación de los procesos productivos) y su impacto sobre las remuneraciones a los factores. Prob. Des [online]. 2005, vol.36, n.141, pp.155-182. ISSN 0301-7036.

The maquiladora temporary employment program became permanent, as a strategy to accelerate industrial growth. After three decades of its existence, its effects on productivity, its integration into aggregate national value and the overall growth of the manufacturing sector is not fulfilling what was expected of it. The factors accounting for this result are the operation of stimuli provided by the U.S. and Mexican governments, the economic rationality of fragmentation of the productive process on a global scale and the great technological distance that separates the economies of the two countries.

Keywords : maquiladora; manufactures; growth; fragmentation; productivity.
