Mexico is in the midst of a transition.
The defeat of the Revolutionary Institutional Party (PRI) in
the 2000 presidential election marked a watershed, and with
the repeated defeat of the PRI in the 2006 election, the era
of the single?party dominance appears to be long gone. The
demise of the one?party system may have been expected to
usher in a new era where benefits of the government policies
and economic development are more widely shared. But, such a
change has yet to take place. Why not? At the same time,
there is a strong perception that the pace of much?needed
economic reforms slowed down under the new political
arrangement. Why? This Institutional and Governance Review
(IGR) addresses these crucial questions, and in so doing
tries to offer some insights into how Mexico's
democratic governance may be strengthened over time. Taking
into consideration the evidence collected for this work, the
study argues that Mexico is well positioned to start its
second transition towards effective democratic governance in
the country, but to do so will require addressing certain
socio-political obstacles that continue to limit the full
effects of democratic accountability. |
