This industrial process derived from the economic development strat-egies undertaken by the Mexican State promoting, through fiscal and financial incentives, subsidies and support infrastructure the metropolitan area of Monterrey. However, the foundations of post-revolutionary social con-stitutionalism were present when this process of industrialization had a major setback with the nationalization of the electricity industry in Mexico. As we shall see, the foundation of this process had its origins in the social and economic approaches of Venustiano Carranza when defining the economic activity of the State in the exploitation of natural resources. Este trabajo expone el análisis de los elementos que explican la elevada concentración no solo poblacional, sino también de las actividades económicas que existen actualmente en la ciudad de Monterrey, cuya tendencia inició de forma irreversible un año después del inicio de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Este proceso industrializador derivó de las estrategias de desarrollo económico emprendidas por el Estado mexicano promoviendo, a través de estímulos fiscales y financieros, subsidios y apoyos de infraestructura al área metropolitana de la ciudad de Monterrey. Sin embargo, los cimientos del constitucionalismo social postrevolucionario se hicieron presentes cuando este proceso de industrialización tuvo un revés importante con la nacionalización de la industria eléctrica en México. Como veremos, el fundamento de este proceso tuvo sus orígenes en los planteamientos sociales y económicos de Venustiano Carranza al momento de definir la actividad económica del Estado en la explotación de los recursos naturales. application/pdf https://ojs.economicas.uba.ar/H-ind/article/view/987 spa Centro de Estudios de Historia Económica Argentina y Latinoamericana (CEHEAL) https://ojs.economicas.uba.ar/H-ind/article/view/987/1586 H-industria.
