TORRES TORRES, Felipe. El atraso regional en los procesos globales: la región del Plan Puebla-Panamá. Prob. Des [online]. 2005, vol.36, n.142, pp.75-100. ISSN 0301-7036.

This article tries to establish the reasons why the country's most economically and socially backward regions have difficulty finding advantages in the new development processes, according to the dynamics of the world economy. We note how the regional development projects arising from government planning, in the context of global territorial competition, have limitations in attracting foreign capital. The thesis here is that the backward regions such as Mexico's south-southeast, alongside the Central American area, constituting the Plan Puebla-Panama's territorial spectrum of influence, have not managed to consolidate groups of local capital, infrastructure or consumer markets that would enable them to benefit from the advantages of foreign investment flows for regional development.

Palavras-chave : regional development; regional planning; foreign investment; territorial dynamics; globalization; Plan Puebla-Panama.
