LOPEZ PINEDA, Luis Fernando. TRANSFORMACIÓN PRODUCTIVA DE LA INDUSTRIA EN COLOMBIA Y SUS REGIONES DESPUÉS DE LA APERTURA ECONÓMICA. Cuad. Econ. [online]. 2010, vol.29, n.53, pp.239-286. ISSN 0121-4772.

This article analyzes the industrial structure behavior of Colombia and its regions between 1974 and 2005, to determine, if the liberal reform carried out at the end of the 20th century caused the industrial stagnation and its lack of diversification. The evidence proved that the "slow down" of the industrial growth and the stagnation of the productive transformation was because of the greatest competition for national industry since the application of an opening model. The process was not similar in all regions covered in the study, the more industrial regions Antioquia, Atlántico, Valle and Bogota suffered from a deindustrialization and the less industrial regions like Bolívar and Cundinamarca increased their industrialization level.

Keywords : Industry; production transformation; economic opening model; Colombia.
