RESUMEN
En este ensayo se describen algunas las circunstancias de esta zona del mundo y sus consecuencias para la salud pública de Norteamérica. La globalización se define como el intercambio de bienes y servicios facilitado por la reducción de barreras en el mercado internacional. Un ejemplo de este proceso se encuentra en la frontera San Diego-Tijuana. Los efectos socioeconómicos y culturales regionales tienen un impacto profundo en los aspectos de la salud no solamente para la población de esta zona sino también para los sistemas de salud de México y Estados Unidos. En este punto se reúnen el poderío económico y el subdesarrollo al mismo tiempo, resultando desigualdades en la salud, aumento de enfermedades crónico-degenerativas, infecciosas y otras, en donde la pobreza y migración constituyen un detonante mayor. La solución a la problemática en esta realidad fronteriza de salud está aún por determinarse.
