Abstract
This paper investigates the backward linkages structure in Baja California's economy using a set of tools for identifying the key sectors in an open and close input-output model (IOM) . In particular, the study focuses on analyzing the relationship between sustaining local suppliers and "promoting" the export maquiladora industry (EMI) , as well as the relationship between regional economic growth and backward linkages.
