BRITO CRUZ, Luis  y  MEJIA REYES, Pablo. Manufacturing employment in Mexico, 1970-2013: a spatial analysis from the NKE approach. Econ. soc. territ [online]. 2020, vol.20, n.63, pp.563-594.  Epub 21-Oct-2020. ISSN 2448-6183.  https://doi.org/10.22136/est20201575.

The evolution of manufacturing employment in Mexico between 1970 and 2013, was analyzed using a spatial data panel with the aim of identifying spatial interaction effects at the state level. Furthermore, under the New Keynesian Economy approach, it is assumed that the employment of this industry is positively correlated with total gross production and negatively with real wages and total factor productivity. Evidence was found of the effects of spillovers and spatial feedback rates indicating intraregional processes of circular and cumulative reinforcement that favor job creation.
