| Abstract: | Production function estimates serve to measure and compare the productive efficiency of a large panel of Mexican manufacturing firms during a period of trade liberalization (1984–90). Foreign capital is found to have a positive influence on productive efficiency at the plant level but, contrarily to crossindustry studies, it does not lead to significant spillovers at the sector level. Enlarging the analysis, it is found that technological diffusion is favored by the size of the plant and by agglomeration economies, while its correlation with international trade exposure does not appear to be robust. |
