GARRIDO NOGUERA, Celso  and  ORTIZ GUERRERO, Claudia. De crisis en crisis: la evolución reciente de las grandes empresas mexicanas. Prob. Des [online]. 2009, vol.40, n.156, pp.47-75. ISSN 0301-7036.

Mexico's economy and its companies again face a crisis that will have repercussions on the country with effects whose nature and extent are yet unknown, given that this is a crisis of economic globalization. In this context, we analyze Mexico's large manufacturers (MLM), nearly 20 years since changes in the framework of the new national economic organization began with the reforms of the 1990s. The study shows that this organization and the MLM have serious structural limitations to compete globally and in the present crisis in particular. It stresses the urgent need that the government and the MLM carry out actions to modernize the national economy and stimulate long-term competitiveness based on innovation and know-how, together with a real and solid integration of small and medium-sized companies (PYME) in the productive chains.

Keywords : crisis; globalization; large companies; economic change and development.
