Abstract
In this paper, we examined indicators of the performance of Mexico’s FDI-led integration strategy in the 1990s against two broad sets of goals: 1) Objectives articulated by the Mexican government, including growth in FDI (Foreign Direct Investment) inflows and exports in the manufacturing sector, and domestic growth, investment and industrial restructuring; 2) The objectives of nurturing “sustainable industrial development,” which we defined in terms of growth of endogenous productive capacity, improved environmental performance of industry, and reduced inequality.
