This dissertation project extends and tests theories of moder- nization. From four decades of Mexican censuses, measures of underemployment, poverty, and living conditions are predicted to vary systematically with urbanization and industrial development. Hypotheses include the idea that average physical and human capital tend to diverge with modernization, and that, under certain conditions, expanding industrial infrastructure can cause declining economic performance per capita.

本文对现代化理论进行了拓展和检验。从墨西哥40年的人口普查来看，就业不足、贫困和生活条件的衡量标准预计会随着城市化和工业发展而系统性地变化。假设包括平均物质资本和人力资本倾向于与现代化分道扬镳，并且在某些条件下，扩大工业基础设施可能导致人均经济绩效下降。
