The paper seeks to relate the increasing economic integration and business cycles of the economies of San Diego and Tijuana to the development of both national and binational economic organizations in the border region. The methodology of analysis uses both statistical estimations of the economic integration of San Diego and Tijuana and semi-structured interviews of economic organizations to analyze the increasing economic integration and the role and achievements of the cross-border economic organizations. The results showed that cross-border cooperation is predominately controlled by federal and state governments on both sides of the border. However, the main achievements of cross-border economic cooperation have been accomplished by local private organizations. The perspective of further local economic development greatly depends on both the possibility of increased involvement of federal governments and the growing encouragement of regional organizations.]]></p></abstract>

Este trabajo busca relacionar la integración económica y la sincronización del ciclo económico de las ciudades de San Diego y Tijuana con el desarrollo de organizaciones económicas tanto a nivel nacional como binacional en la frontera. La metodología de análisis utiliza tanto estimaciones estadísticas como entrevistas semiestructuradas a organizaciones económicas con el fin de analizar la intensificación de la integración económica y los logros de las organizaciones económicas en la cooperación transfronteriza. Los resultados muestran que la cooperación transfronteriza ha estado controlada por organizaciones estatales y federales de ambos lados de la frontera. No obstante, los principales logros han sido realizados por organizaciones económicas privadas locales. Las perspectivas de mayor desarrollo económico dependen de la posibilidad de mayor involucramiento federal y de la promoción de organizaciones económicas locales.]]></p></abstract>
