Abstract
This article analyzes Mexican trade in manufactured goods at the subsector level for the period 1993–2013. The results show that underlying dynamic manufacturing exports is a high dependency on manufacturing imports, particularly of capital and intermediate goods and high technology inputs. This has led to important deficits in the trade balance for important manufacturing sectors. In addition, although the Mexican economy has had trade surpluses with both Canada and the United States, it has shown increasing trade deficits vis-à-vis China, Japan, Korea, and the European Union, particularly in the manufacturing sector.

Editorial Policies Focus and Scope Section Policies Peer Review Process Open Access Policy Archiving General Criteria Ethical Guidelines Directory Indexing Editorial Bodies Editorial Board International Advisory Board Focus and Scope Norteamérica is a semiannual peer-reviewed journal regarding multi and interdisciplinary academic studies about the North America region (Mexico, United States and Canada) which consider the region itself as an object of study, along with its evolution, its individual processes and internal dynamics. An analysis of the reality of each of the three nations is thematically linked with the rest of the region. 1.- Norteamérica will publish exclusively multi- and interdisciplinary academic studies focused on the North American region (Mexico, the United States and Canada) that: a) address the region as an object of analysis: specifically, its evolution, particular processes, and internal dynamics; b) analyze the reality in each of the three nations, linking them thematically with the rest of the region; c) carry out comparative studies of the nations of North America; d) address the region and its insertion in the international context; and e) expand upon international processes and their impact within the region. 2.- Through these research perspectives, the journal will disseminate articles addressing a wide variety of general and specific issues: a) politics, economics, society and culture; b) foreign policy, trade, political systems, security, comparative politics, political philosophy and history; and c) migration, electoral processes, borders, science and technology, minorities, the environment and natural resources, education, human rights, gender, and others.
