15669. MEXICO'S MAQUILADORAS. Following an overview of the institutional framework, history, current status (money and people involved, regions involved), and trends in Mexico's maquiladora sector, the analysis considers the major criticisms leveled against the maquiladoras and their impact on Mexico, its workers, and its citizens, looking closely at charges that the maquiladoras exploit Mexican workers, jeopardize worker health and safety, and create environmental and public health problems. The concluding section provides a response to the critique, pointing out the benefits of maquiladoras and arguing that many of the problems are the result of inept governance in Mexico. The Mexican government is called on to take a more aggressive stance in establishing environmental, health and safety regulations, and in establishing a livable minimum wage.
