Abstract

RESUMEN En este estudio se han comparado, para el periodo 1988-1995 y para el caso del País Vasco y Cataluña, una serie de indicadores de los sectores industriales más penetrados por el capital extranjero con el resto de los sectores. Los resultados coinciden para ambas comunidades autónomas sobre el carácter más concentrado, mejor remunerado, más exportador y productivo de esos sectores. Sin embargo, mientras en el País Vasco los costes laborales unitarios y la propensión importadora son menores, sin que se observen diferencias en cuanto al comportamiento tecnológico, en Cataluña destacan por su mayor esfuerzo inversor y por su capacidad para sostener un mayor nivel de empleo. ABSTRACT It has been compared, for the period 1988-1995 in the Basque Country and Catalonia, a series of indicators of the industrial sectors most penetrated by foreign capital with the rest of sectors. Results are coincident in both regions about the more concentrated, best paid, more export oriented and productive character of these sectors. However, whereas in the Basque Country the unity labour costs and the import propensity is lower, and no differences are observed about technological behaviour, in Catalonia these may be highlighted because of their more investment effort and their capacity to sustain a higher level of employment.
