Furthermore, we find that the crisis had differential impacts at the regional level, being that states with greater integration into the American economy, as the north of the country were most affected by this crisis, in contrast to those that have a low level of integration with the processes of economic globalization in general and the U.S. economy in particular, as those of the southern region.
