ERQUIZIO ESPINAL, Alfredo  e  RAMIREZ RODRIGUEZ, Roberto. 2009 recession and expansion from 2010 to 2012 in the states of Mexico. Estud. front [online]. 2014, vol.15, n.30, pp.181-213. ISSN 2395-9134.

The article examines the recession and expansion phases for which transited Mexico in the past four years and in particular explains the causes of regional diversity of manifes­tations of the Great Recession of 2009. It uses regional-sectoral typology, formulated new indices based on Mitchell hypothesis about classic cycles and proposes a regional cycle equation inspired Frish metaphor about cyclical mechanism. This verifies that the sectoral profile of the states determines such differentiation, since most manufacturing states were most affected and characterized mainly by agricultural or mining character, they were less.
