ALONSO, José A.. Soberanía nacional y neoliberalismo en México: el nuevo sector manufacturero en Tlaxcala. Prob. Des [online]. 2006, vol.37, n.145, pp.81-103. ISSN 0301-7036.

The leader countries in the present capitalist world economy emphasize the vigorous development of their respective manufacturing sectors and the defense to the death of their national sovereignty. In this context, the question arises about the impact exercised by neoliberal globalization in the development of Mexico's national industry and, therefore, in the strengthening of its sovereignty. The analysis of the manufacturing sector's evolution in the state of Tlaxcala makes it possible to see that the great beneficiaries have been the foreign companies because such a tiny state is the setting for world competition starting up between the European Union and the United States. Neither regional autonomy nor Mexican sovereignty appear to be benefiting up to now from that neoliberal policy.

Keywords : opening; protectionism; sovereignty; maquiladora; regions.
