Despite the phenomenal growth, the reality is Alicante has been less dynamic than other Spanish provinces. Over the past two decades, the relative weight of the frontier in the national economy has been lost. This emerged at a roundtable meeting organized by the Juan Gil-Albert Institute of Culture and the County Council, in collaboration with Ineca, to analyze the state’s development over the past 20 years.
A show where the speakers are the director of Ineca Projects, Armando Ortunoand this organization’s Director of Studies, Francisco Llopis. The starting point of the meeting was to recall the different plans prepared at the turn of the century by the various provincial institutions, which tried to imagine what the Alicante economy and society would be like in 2020, which, as revealed during the rather unsuccessful plans. speech.
In this sense, Llopis has compiled Ineca’s work in Alicante, which reflects this less dynamism and has resulted in the renewal of the province as its main result. pushed into wagons in per capita income, the main indicator of the wealth and prosperity of a region.
In particular, according to data from the Alicante ‘think tank’, the state Stopped being 27th Among the group of Spanish provinces in 2000, To sink in position 44.
In the same sense, the rise of the province from 10th to 18th among Spanish exporters is also significant, and it is also significant that 20 years ago Alicante concentrated 2.8 percent. shipments from abroadcurrently making almost no contributions 1.8%
In general, Alicante lost weight, falling from 16th to 25th place in agriculture and from 7th to 16th in industry. He also loses his job in construction, and the job remains in trade and service.
As a whole, the province’s total GDP went from 3.14% at the national level in 2000 to staying at 3.03%. The main challenges facing Llopis and Ortuño include improving productivity and wages, enabling companies to grow, reducing temporary employment and, above all, the current unemployment rate. Some challenges, as Ineca has consistently insisted, are also necessary to increase government and Generalitat investment in the state.
