SASTRE GUTIERREZ, Myrna L.. SPATIAL MOBILITY OF HUMAN DEVELOPMENT IN MEXICO. Desarro. soc. [online]. 2018, n.81, pp.115-144. ISSN 0120-3584. https://doi.org/10.13043/dys.81.3.
In spite of the continuous improvement shown by the Human Development Index (HDI) for Mexico, a recent report has concluded about the persistence of inequality of development at the subnational level (PNUD, 2015). The doc ument adds that state-level mobility in the scale of human development is almost nonexistent. This paper describes characteristics that have not been yet formalized for analysis from a spatial perspective. In the present work, I use novel spatial methods to explore the nature of such distributional move ments and investigate their relative importance. The results show the presence of integrated spatial dynamics as well as rigidity in the distributive mix of the composite HDI index and its various dimensions. The findings offer new insights into the importance of such spatial patterns for the persistence of regional inequality in the different social dimensions of human development in Mexico.
