Resumen

Explicamos cuantitativamente la dinámica del empleo en sectores y empresas de base tecnológica (SBT) de la Red de ciudades Centro-Noreste de México. Las preguntas de investigación son: ¿dónde, cuánto, en qué SBT y por qué cambió el empleo en la Red, sus nodos y sus microespacios, entre 2015 y 2020? El método fue el análisis de cambio y participación espacial. Exponemos el desempeño del empleo SBT como un sistema espacio-sectorial multiescalar. Las ciudades medias son más eficientes en la producción de empleos SBT que ciudades con mayor población y empleo SBT, lo que demuestra su fortaleza económica. La Red depende del sector electrónico y fabricación de equipo vehicular. Si el sector cae, la Red se desmorona. Develamos qué región, ciudad y municipio ofrece mayores/menores ventajas competitivas, a qué tipo de empresas por sector y actividad. Sugerimos algunas líneas de política para apalancar la Red.


EMPLOYMENT CHANGE IN TECHNOLOGY-BASED SECTORS IN MEXICO’S NORTHEAST-CENTRAL NETWORK, 2015-2020


ABSTRACT


This paper offers a quantitative explanation of the employment dynamics in the technology-based sectors and companies (TBS) of the network of Central-Northeast cities of Mexico (T-MEC network). The research questions are: Where, how much, in what TBS, and why did employment change in the T-MEC network, in its nodes, and its micro spaces, between 2015 and 2020? The method was the Spatial Shift-Share Analysis. It explains the performance of TBS employment as a multi-scale space-sector system. Medium cities are more efficient in producing TBS jobs than cities with higher populations and TBS employment, which shows the economic strength. The network depends on the Electronic Sector and manufacture of vehicular equipment. If the sector fails, the network collapses. The paper reveals which region, city and municipality offers greater/less competitive advantages, to what type of companies by sector and activity. It suggests some policy lines to leverage the network.
