Abstract

This research focuses on the state of Yucatan, Mexico, and provides evidence of unsustainable performance of the local economy: the local economic structure and income distribution widens the gap between rich and poor households. A constructive policy towards sustainable development would place greater emphasis on productive restructuring the agricultural sector, road transport and electric power generation, in designing actions of technological change and sustainable natural resource management. An exhaustive hybrid environmental social accounting matrix (ESAM) and linear multipliers models are used to analyse the interactions of the local economy with the use of resources, the environment and income distribution. Esta investigación se centra en el estado de Yucatán (México) y proporciona evidencia del desempeño no sostenible de la economía local: la estructura económica local y la distribución de ingresos amplían la brecha entre los hogares ricos y pobres. Una política constructiva que busque el desarrollo sostenible haría mayor hincapié en la reestructuración productiva del sector agrícola, el transporte por carretera y la generación de energía eléctrica, a la hora de diseñar cambios tecnológicos e iniciativas de gestión sostenible de los recursos naturales. Para analizar las interacciones de la economía local con el uso de los recursos, el medio ambiente y la distribución de ingresos se utiliza una matriz exhaustiva híbrida de contabilidad social y ambiental (ESAM, por su siglas en inglés) y modelos de multiplicadores lineales. 本稿では、メキシコのユカタン州に注目し、持続不可能な地域経済の実績のエビデンス、すなわち、裕福な世帯と貧しい世帯の格差を拡大させる地域の経済構造と所得分配を提示する。技術変革と自然資源の持続可能な利用管理の実行計画において、持続可能な発展に向けた建設的政策は、農業セクター、道路交通、発電の生産的再構築に重点が置かれるであろう。環境社会会計行列 (environmental social accounting matrix: ESAM)と線形乗数モデルの、網羅的なハイブリッドを用いて、地域経済と資源の利用、環境、所得分配との相互作用を分析する。
