Capítulo 2. La destrucción creativa de la I4.0 y su impacto en la productividad laboral de la manufactura mexicana.: Una visión por sexo.
Synopsis
This chapter examines how Industry 4.0–driven creative destruction has shaped gender-differentiated labor productivity in Mexico’s manufacturing sector. Drawing on Schumpeterian and evolutionary perspectives, it measures productivity gaps between women and men across 21 manufacturing subsectors and Mexico’s states using Economic Census waves (2003, 2008, 2013, 2018/2004, 2009, 2014, 2019). The analysis adapts gap indices and applies an adaptive-growth framework linking productivity growth to output growth to characterize regional and sectoral reconfiguration. Results highlight heterogeneity: I4.0-related subsectors exhibit pronounced disparities and shifting regional patterns. The chapter concludes that technological change is uneven and calls for STEM upskilling and inclusive industrial policies to broaden I4.0 gains.
