摘要:the paper analyzes some theoretical aspects of the knowledge economy and measures the e"ects of the knowledge factor on Mexico’s economic performance over the two past decades.We propose speci#c indicators to measure the activities of production,acquisition,di"usion,and application of knowledge and verifying their relationship to the GDP per capita through a co-integration econometric model.!e overall results agree with the economic theory,since the global knowledge economy indicator is positive and signi#cant.Analyzing the activities individually we found that production and application performed as expected;whereas the values found for acquisition and di"usion are not signi#cant.!e amount of knowledge generated in the world increases constantly so that the acquisition of this production cannot keep pace and the capabilities of Mexico to implement knowledge are lagging behind.!e acquisition of knowledge has di"erent unregistered elements,such as the informal acquisition,the di"erent qualities of the acquired knowledge and the characteristics of who acquires the knowledge.Perhaps,the most complex indicator is the di"usion ofknowledge,which mainly occurs through invisible channels,from person to person,linking tacit knowledge,this phenomenon is hard to quantify.
