Strategy followed for more than three decades than the agenda of the Washington Consensus and that far from perceiving signs of industrial "escalation" rather a process of degradation and setback has occurred. Condition where Mexico but also Latin America stands out, which has kept it submerged in a scenario of technological dependence, industrial fragmentation and precarization of the national market.
