Spanish term

extranjerización

Spanish to English Social Sciences Government / Politics
en la mayoría de los países de la región, durante los años noventa se produjo un fracaso del ideal de “derrame de riqueza”, un exceso de confianza en el rol disciplinador del mercado, menor crecimiento con crisis fiscal y déficit externo creciente, caída de la inversión productiva, debilitamiento del sistema de innovación (extranjerización o eliminación de capacidades de generación tecnológica de variado nivel), desfinanciamiento y privatización de la salud y la educación, reformas laborales que debilitaron las relaciones entre capital y trabajo a favor del primero, desarticulación del Estado, consolidación de economías oligopolizadas, desinversión en infraestructura y sistemas financieros nacionales al servicio de la concentración de la riqueza.

I have seen examples suggesting that this is connected with privatisation, but the companies are taken over my large multinationals
