Resumen
The present article includes the analysis of the logics of insertion of the new closed residential urbanism contained in dispersed fragments on the periphery, and located within the urban reticles in the system of cities conformed by Tampico, Ciudad Madero and Altamira to the south of the state of Tamaulipas, Mexico. For this purpose, the main variables used were localization of the place, the characteristics of the spatial environment and its dimension and morphology, because the location incidence intervenes in the formation of the periphery and the urban fragmentation that prevails today.

Resumen
This paper contributes to the debate over the relationship between income inequality and economic growth. The fertility - human capital mechanism proposed by De la Croix y Doepke (2003) is tested in the context of the Mexican economy. In this mechanism, a negative effect from inequality to growth is proposed through the effects that income inequality exerts on fertility rates and in the aggregate stock of human capital in the economy. The empirical analysis is conducted using a database disaggregated to the municipal level within a period of five years (2000-2005). Evidence is found supporting the validity of the model in the context of Mexico.

Resumen
This paper explores the spatial location patterns of firms in different sectors of the Mexican manufacturing industry. The analysis is carried out using a continuous spatial statistic approach by employing a K-function for each sector that is then compared to a Complete Spatial Randomness (CSR) distribution and other relevant benchmarks. We show that Mexican manufacturing follows a bimodal distribution and significant spatial concentrations are present for all manufacturing sec- tors at different distances. However, using the spatial distribution of the complete set of manufactures as a point of reference, variations in the spatial distribution are also found to exist.

Resumen
This paper estimates the intensity of R&D expenditure, and is related to the propensity to innovate in the Mexico’s manufacturing firms. Moreover, the direct effect of knowledge spillovers over innovations is analyzed. The empirical analysis provides evidence that agreements with educational institutions and public financing has a positive effect over R&D expenditure and innovations. This paper concludes that the spillovers is relevant as they have a positive effect on the innovations; and the results show that excluding the spillovers from the analysis would generate an overestimation of R&D expenditure in innovations.

Resumen
We extend the collective model of household behavior to consider both public consumption (expenditures on children), as well as non-participation in the labor market. Identification of individual preferences and the sharing rule derived by observing each individual’s labor supply and the total expenditure on the public good rest on the existence of a distribution factor and on the existence and uniqueness of individual reservation wages at which both members are indifferent as to whether a member participates or not. Using a sample of Mexican nuclear families, collective rationality is not rejected. No evidence is found that empowering mothers is more beneficial for children than empowering fathers.

Resumen
Business cycles in the North American countries have converged, while per capita income gaps remain; thus, factoral remunerations must be different. If North America were a single economic area the relevant variables ought to converge and, according to the pure theory of international trade, factoral productivity should also be similar; particularly when trade between those counties maintain intraindustry patterns. This paper explores the differences in productivity in North America by means of basic indicators and the concept of the “vertically integrated sector”. Results indicate that industries are increasingly interdependent and that productivity in each country follows independent paths.

Resumen
This paper investigates the effect of uncertainty on FDI flows into the Mexican manufacturing sector during the period 2007-2015. Using a panel of manufacturing subsectors, we estimate a model by System GMM that includes domestic and external factors, as well as idiosyncratic and aggregate uncertainty measures as explicative variables. We also performsome simulations to assess the size of the uncertainty effect on FDI flows. The main results show that uncertainty discourages FDI flows into the Mexican manufacturing sector during this period. We also find that idiosyncratic uncertainty measures are more important in explaining FDI flows than aggregate uncertainty measures.

Resumen
Switching costs and network effects can deter competition in telecom-munications markets, as they create a lock-in effect that reduces the mobility of consumers between operators. The subject has been studied in the international context, but their conclusions are not unanimous to-date, and are scarce when it comes to countries like Mexico. This study provides an estimate of the costs of handover in Mexico for the period from 2007 to 2016. The impact of diminishing switching costs on consumer mobility and market concentration is evaluated and found to have a favorable effect.

Resumen
I develop a voting model of decentralized provision of local public goods (LPGs) with campaign contributions. I compare an economy with and without campaign contributions: in the former economy, local governments do not provide Pareto efficient LPGs and do not maximize the welfare gains associated with matching LPGs with the inter-regional heterogeneity of preferences of voters. For the economy with campaign contributions, LPGs with and without spillovers are Pareto efficient, and the system of local governments maximizes the gains associated with matching LPGs with the inter-regional heterogeneity of preferences.
