dc.description | In the last three decades the geographical distribution of manufacturing change substantially, prompting new concentrations, particularly in the high tech industry. In this sense, the aim of this study is to know and analyze from the perspective of pecuniary and technological externalities factors that explain the change in the agglomeration of high-tech manufacturing. To do so,a questionnaire was applied to 55 manufacturing facilities located in Matamoros andReynosa in Tamaulipas. The results indicate that the highest concentration of high-tech industry has been motivated mainly by the geographic location of the municipalities, access to unskilled labor and cheap availability of urban infrastructure, among others. This means that there is no evidence for the pecuniary and technological externalities determine the agglomeration of high-tech industry in these cities. | en-US |
dc.description | En las últimas tres décadas, la distribución geográfica de la manufactura provocó nuevas concentraciones en la industria de alta tecnología. Este estudio analiza desde las externalidades pecuniarias y tecnológicas hasta los factores del cambio en la aglomeración de dicha industria. Se aplicó un cuestionario a 55 establecimientos en Matamoros y Reynosa, en Tamaulipas. Los resultados denotan que la mayor concentración de la industria fue motivada por la ubicación geográfica de los municipios, el acceso a mano de obra no calificada y barata, y la disponibilidad de infraestructura urbana, entre otros. No hay, pues, evidencia a favor de que las externalidades pecuniarias y tecnológicas determinasen la aglomeración de la industria de alta tecnología en estas ciudades. | es-ES |
