La obra que el lector tiene en sus manos profundiza y completa el acercamiento al sector exportador mexicano que se inició en la última sección de "El comercio exterior de México en la era del capitalismo liberal", publicado en 2007 por esta misma casa editorial. Su propósito es analizar el auge exportador que tuvo lugar en México durante la "primera globalización del mundo contemporáneo": Los factores que lo propiciaron, sus características, su emplazamiento geográfico y su evolución a lo largo de ese periodo. El libro propone rastrear la vinculación interna de procesos y actividades productivas cuya dimensión más notoria fue la conexión con el mercado internacional, para de esa manera valorar el papel de la primera era exportadora en el desenvolvimiento de largo plazo de la economía mexicana.

"This is a professional edited collection for the Inside Technology series looking at what the editors call assetization. They ask: what lies in the wake of commodification? How should we characterize and analyze technoscientific capitalism in the era of Uber and Airbnb, the business model sorcery of giants like Google and Genentech, rising immaterial and cognitive labor productivity represented by the explosion in Big Data, and the construction of population behavior as money-making resource? The editors define an asset as something-a piece of land, a skill or experience, a sum of money, a bodily function or affective personality, a life form, a patent or copyright, etc.-that can be owned or controlled, traded, and capitalized as a revenue stream, often involving the valuation of discounted future earnings in the present. Assets can certainly be bought and sold, yes. But the point is to get a durable rent from them, not to sell them away in the market today. How do things become assets, then? They are made so: the asset form is not, it is important to stress, the consequence of some inherent or embodied quality. The intention of this volume is to show how assets are constructed, how a variety of things are and can be turned into assets, examining the interests, activities, skills, organizations, and relations entangled in this process. Another is to stress that technoscientific capitalism entails specific practices that make the uncertainty inherent in innovation understandable and calculable as part of a broader capitalist system. The asset form reflects the tumult in contemporary technoscientific capitalism, in which it becomes harder and harder to draw clear boundaries around what counts as or comes to constitute capitalism How different is assetization from commodification? Which kind of legal constructions, political arrangements, and economic operations does it entail? Where does it find justification? What kind of critique does it call for? The research gathered in this edited volume opens directions in order to tackle these problems from a critical, qualitative perspective"--
