APONTE GARCIA, Maribel. Strategic Regionalisms and Domestic and Transnational Hydrocarbon Companies in the United States and Latin America. Prob. Des [online]. 2017, vol.48, n.191, pp.27-54. ISSN 0301-7036.

This study analyzes how different regionalisms in Latin America are tied to the restructuring of the upstream American oil chain and the private transnational company (PTC)/domestic oil company (DOC) dichotomy. This research is situated in the theoretical framework of new strategic regionalism and value chains, seeking to forge connections between chains and companies through data mining. This research was designed as a quantitative-descriptive study. The analysis of concepts (regionalistil, natural resources, and transnational companies) is operationalized by linking together the construct with the information available in the databases.
