Elevar el dinamismo de las exportaciones sin exacerbar fricciones proteccionistas requeriría una mayor orientación hacia productos novedosos o con demandas más elásticas. Esto implicaría un salto hacia la economía del conocimiento, una mayor exportación de servicios personales y un México más atractivo para las personas, es decir, colocar el fortalecimiento del Estado de derecho y la preservación del patrimonio ecológico y turístico en el centro de la agenda de política.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract Building on a novel elasticities-based growth accounting decomposition, this note puts the insu&#64259;cient dynamism of Mexico&#8217;s exports and the inertia of its segmented economy at the heart of its unsatisfactory per capita GDP growth. Boosting exports without exacerbating protectionism would require a shift toward more innovative products or with higher demand elasticities. This in turn would imply a greater shift toward a knowledge economy and exports of personal services. Making Mexico more attractive to people through strengthening the rule of law and preserving the country&#8217;s ecological and touristic capital should therefore be at the center of the country&#8217;s growth agenda.]]></p></abstract>
