International trade and the distribution of income : theory and historical evidence -- The import substitution trade regime -- Resource allocation and the distribution of income under import substitution industrialization : empirical evidence -- The transition to an open economy -- Changes in the distribution of income among households during the period of liberalization -- Changes in the distribution of income in urban and rural areas -- The evolution of poverty between 1984 and 1989.
Review: "Study examines trends in income distribution in Mexico during the period of trade and economic liberalization. Makes the obvious but often ignored point that the prediction of orthodox theory can turn out to be false if its assumptions are not fulfilled and if offsetting forces are at work. The study's detailed analysis of the effective protection rates in 1989 shows how inadequate reforms have been as far as the promotion of efficient resource allocation"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
