Using a spatial dynamic panel, the long-run industrial sector convergence rate across Mexico’s states is found to be 2%. The model is a system-General Method of Moments with correction for spatial autocorrelation and an explicit human capital input. The significant inequality between the...

A standardized coefficients model to explain and assess the importance of some factors that currently are contributing to patenting level in the Mexican states is proposed. From a theoretical point of view, patenting level may be the result of several factors such as the growth of the high-tech...

Allocation of water resources between Mexico and the United States is a sensitive agenda in the lower Rio Grande, mainly in stages of hard drought. It has allowed surface water allocation practices to evolve and continue to be refined. This work applies the cointegration theory on historical...
