This paper aims to analyze the Spanish economic situation from a theoretical-empirical point of view in order to construct a theoretical approach to how the productivity of a country affects the internationalization of its industrial manufacturing sectors. The main hypothesis would be that if a country increase productivity its economy will be prone to an internationalization process and in the mean time the social welfare of the country will improve, unfortunately we consider it is not the Spanish case.
