This is a main theme of the essays in B. P. Bosworth, R. Dornbusch and R. Laban (eds.), The Chilean Economy: Policy Lessons and Challenges (Washington, DC, 1994). Despite the Chilean record of impressive growth, there remain problems for income distribution. See D. Raczynski and P.

This first phase of adjustment failed partly because the government underestimated the extent of structural reform necessary to restore equilibrium and partly because external credit and assistance was so limited.

Authors' confidential interviews conducted in Mexico City during 1991 and 1992 with a broad sample from within the Mexican business community concerning those factors which most influenced their support for NAFTA. As trade opening became positively linked with inflation reduction, those microeconomic losers from external competition were gradually persuaded of the merits of the overall programme.

La pobreza en Mexico 1984-1992 según INEGI-CEPAL
-
Our figures on the distribution of household income are taken from the household surveys of income and spending undertaken by Mexico's National Institute of Statistics (INEGI). The national results are available for 1984, 1989 and 1992 as both raw data and a series of comparative tables on CD-ROM; the most recent survey (1994) has been in general release only as a 'hard copy' book which includes summary, but not comparative (multi-year) tables. We readily acknowledge the difficulty with which reliable and comparable household income surveys are obtained; our hope is that the use of the same source at least allows for the over-time comparisons drawn in the text. For an analysis and critique of the INEGI household survey with specific regard to its measurement of poverty, see J. Boltvinik, 'La pobreza en Mexico 1984-1992 según INEGI-CEPAL', Economia Informe, no. 237 (1995).

If one focuses on the income earned solely by the head-of-household, the distributional picture under Salinas worsens; specifically, the four lowest deciles showed markedly negative growth from 1989 to 1991, suggesting that the more favourable picture reflected in the data may be largely due to the increased workforce participation of women, youths and other non-traditional wage earners.

note

The 1984-9 and 1989-92 growth figures are taken directly from the comparative tables offered in Instituto Nacional de Estadística, Geografía e Informática (INEGI), Encuesta National de Ingresos y Gastos de los Hogares (1994 CD-ROM). A similar figure for 1992-4 is not available directly and must be calculated by 'splicing' two different samples. The use of the method suggested by INEGI, combining reported household income and the CPI, yielded an estimate but when we tried to check the calculation procedure against the directly reported INEGI figures for the earlier time period, there were significant discrepancies. Our 'best' alternative method of linking the time periods was via the growth in real per capita GDP, which was 1.64 per cent over 1989-92 as against a reported 1.7 per cent increase in real monetary income for households over the same period. This standard gives the pattern reported in the text but does not use the same method and hence is not strictly comparable to the other growth figures; moreover, it may understate gains in consumer welfare since the concurrent overvaluation of the peso tended to enhance purchasing power at every level of income. of course, as we stress below, this overvaluation prop is now gone and lower income groups are subsequently experiencing the full pain of the earlier redistribution.

NBER Working Paper No. 3391, Cambridge, Indirect evidence for the wage dispersion effect also comes from comparing household distribution data with household income by sources; wages, salaries, and overtime actually rose slowly but steadily between 1984 and 1992 even as distribution by household decile worsened, a pattern which is consistent with rising inequality within labour markets
-
For a theoretical explanation of why liberalisation might induce a widening of wage differentials within Mexico, see E. Learner, 'Wage Effects of a US-Mexican Free Trade Agreement', NBER Working Paper No. 3391, Cambridge, 1992. Indirect evidence for the wage dispersion effect also comes from comparing household distribution data with household income by sources; wages, salaries, and overtime actually rose slowly but steadily between 1984 and 1992 even as distribution by household decile worsened, a pattern which is consistent with rising inequality within labour markets.

Originally launched in 1965, Mexico's maquila programme allows duty-free imports of capital equipment for use in manufacturing and assembly, with the stipulation that investors pay duty only on the value-added within Mexico, and that 80 % of a plant's output must be exported. For more detail on the maquila industry, see L. Sklair, Assembling for Development: The Maquila Industry in Mexico and the United States (San Diego, 1993).

As an income subsidy rather than a price support, PROCAMPO is compatible with the rules of the World Trade Organisation (WTO) and NAFTA. See Banco de México, The Mexican Economy, 1994 (Mexico, 1995).

Systematic and comparable World Bank data of the sort used in Table 7 are not available after 1990; analysis of social expenditure trends under the Salinas sexenio is further complicated by the considerable overlap between long-standing social spending categories and newer commitments under PRONASOL. Because of this, we base our assessment of the continued plateau in social spending as a share of GDP in the 1990s on the authors' interviews at the Ministry of Social Development, Mexico City, June 1995.

See D. Dresser, Neopopulist Solutions to Neoliberal Problems: Mexico's National Solidarity Program (San Diego, 1991), p. 1. The structure of PRONASOL made it very open to characterisation as a social tranquiliser: since recipient communities were required to organise to articulate their demands, the most organised of the poor - i.e. those most likely to protest were also the most likely to receive funds. At the same time, the demand-based nature of PRONASOL and its Latin American counterpart programmes could be viewed as positive in that they require grass-roots mobilisation to trigger funding.

Business Strategy and Cross-Industry Clusters

For a view of this process in the US, see P. Doeringer and D. Terka, 'Business Strategy and Cross-Industry Clusters', Economic Development Quarterly, vol. 9, no. 3 (1995), PP. 225-37.
