description Mexico is one of the most integrated economies in GVC, particularly with the United States in the automotive industry. The objective of this article is to analyze the integration of the manufacturing sector in CGV, taking into account the deepening of transformation activities and the relationship with labor markets. In doing so, we use Trade in Value Added (TiVA) and Trade in eMployment (TiM) databases published by the OECD. We found that Mexico’s manufacturing sector is strongly integrated in GCV, especially with the United States, covering a high proportion of added-value exports and jobs created by exports. Nonetheless, the integration exposes Mexican manufacturing sector to two main challenges: US trade policy changes and automation.

México es una de las economías más insertadas en cadenas globales de valor, especialmente con Estados Unidos en la industria automotriz. Este artículo tiene por objeto analizar la integración del sector manufacturero de México en las cadenas globales de valor (CGV), observando la profundidad de las actividades de transformación, los sectores más dinámicos y la importancia para el mercado laboral. Para ello se utilizan las bases de datos Trade in Value Added (TiVA) y Trade in eMployment (TiM) publicadas por la OCDE. Se encuentra que el sector de manufacturas mexicano está fuertemente integrado en CGV, en especial con Estados Unidos, pues abarca una elevada proporción de las exportaciones con valor agregado y de los empleos generados por exportaciones. No obstante, la integración del sector lo expone a dos desafíos principales: los cambios en la política comercial de Estados Unidos y la automatización.
