Abstract: This paper analyzes the growth of the maquiladora industry on Mexico's northern border. The concentration of capital, its productive structure, wages, working conditions and structural problems are analyzed. Its deleterious effect on the region and its major cities and the environment only exacerbate the unequal and subordinated pattern of Mexico's integration into the U.S.
