ODISIO, Juan. State-owned enterprises and petrochemicals in Mexico and Argentina during the import substitution industrialization. Sig. his [online]. 2018, vol.20, n.40, pp.262-311.  Epub 03-Ago-2020. ISSN 1665-4420.

This article seeks to shed new light on the role assumed by the Latin American State over industrial production during the postwar period both through regulation and its companies. I specifically examine the history of the petrochemical industry in Argentina and Mexico from its early implantation in the 1940s to the abandonment of the industrialization strategy five decades later. To this end, I consider the strategies followed by Petróleos Mexicanos (PEMEX) and Yacimientos Petrolíferos Fiscales (YPF) as well as the different legal regimes regarding the sector established during the second half of the last century.

Palabras llave : industrial development; state regulation; public oil companies; business strategies; basic petrochemicals.
