Abstract
CAIRO-I-CESPEDES, Gemma and CORTES TORRES, Iván. Semi-periphery and global value chains: The case of food industry in Mexico. El trimestre econ [online]. 2022, vol.89, n.355, pp.795-828. Epub Dec 02, 2022. ISSN 2448-718X. https://doi.org/10.20430/ete.v89i355.1262.
The access of some developing countries to globalization on a competitive basis has changed their position in the international division of labour and has meant the expansion of some of their domestic sectors, but, at the same time, it has deepened their structural features of dependency and structural heterogeneity. The semi-periphery, as a category that allows studying the changes in the centre-periphery structure, gives us the framework to analyse the participation of the Mexican agro-industrial sector in global value chains (GVC) and its impacts, which confirm the perpetuation of its peripheral features as disarticulation and extraversion.
