Abstract

El caso de Wal-Mart en México es, sin duda, el fenómeno más avanzado de un proceso más largo de internacionalización de las grandes cadenas internacionales de comercio durante los años noventa, en particular en muchas regiones de la periferia. Este proceso es de importancia mayor en términos de reconfiguración de las economías locales tanto a nivel interno como a nivel de la integración internacional. El objetivo de este articulo es de proponer una lectura a nivel macro e comparatista - con un enfoque especial sobre el caso de Wal-Mart en México – no solo de los motivos de la expansión de estas transnacionales y las fuerzas que las animan, si no también de discutir sus limitaciones.
