Publisher's Synopsis
This detailed empirical study illustrates the different sources of political and economic pressure that combine to produce a process of 'incremental' innovation in Mexican stateûsociety relations. Challenging the claims of neoliberal proponents, the volume makes a striking and original contribution to the literature on neoliberal state restructuring in Mexico and in Latin America. The key issues about economic restructuring and political modernization in Mexico are brought into focus, rendering this work invaluable to political economists who have a specific focus on Latin America, Mexican politics and public sector reform. - -
