VARGAS-CASTRO, José Alejandro  e  MOCHI-ALEMAN, Prudencio Óscar. Favouring or hindering strategies for local development within the globalisation framework. Econ. soc. territ [online]. 2008, vol.8, n.26, pp.381-413. ISSN 2448-6183.

This paper analyses the strategies undertaken by local areas within the globalisation framework. We emphasise how some of these strategies can favour or hinder the ranking of the local area. We present three case studies in the State of Mexico: San Mateo Atenco, Valle de Bravo and Villa Guerrero. We identified some capacities of the intervening social players that allow a region to establish strategies that strengthen its local development. Nonetheless, the development is obstructed where no strategy is in place. The analysis of these capacities is carried out from three independent variables: organisational, instrumental and systemic capacities. We demonstrate that local development depends on these variables at international, national and local levels in a globalised context.
