Resumen

El objetivo de este estudio es demostrar que en el largo plazo las exportaciones mexicanas hacia Estados Unidos son impulsadas principalmente por factores tecnológicos y de organización industrial. En particular, se identifica si las capacidades tecnológicas tienen significado sistemático, así como la función que desempeñan en el corto plazo. Para ello, se estima un modelo de determinantes de las exportaciones bajo diversas especificaciones diferenciadas por las variables tecnológicas. Se emplean técnicas de cointegración para una estimación rigurosa de las exportaciones en el largo plazo, incluyendo el vecm, que muestra la dinámica de corto plazo, y se determina si estas variables causan en el sentido de Granger a las exportaciones. Se observa que las capacidades tecnológicas y competencia monopólica impactan en las exportaciones.
