Seminar paper from the year 2017 in the subject Business economics - Economic Policy, grade: 1,3, Schmalkalden University of Applied Sciences, language: English, abstract: Mexico, the second largest economy in Latin America, finds itself confronted with several internal and external issues. In the prior year, the country experienced a decline of the economic growth. Major reasons are on the one hand, the uncertain future after the presidential election of Donald Trump, as well as the decreasing industrial production of the main trade partner, the USA. In consequence, the oil price fell, and the Mexican currency lost 20% of their value. On the other hand, the domestic market is strongly influenced by misallocation of educational funds, failed reforms, which increased the income inequality and organized crime. This essay will reflect briefly on these topics, to give a short overview of the country`s economic background andthe current situation. Furthermore, certain information about society, history and the political system will be provided to allow the reader a full insight into these connected topics.
Mexico is reinventing itself. It is moving toward a more tolerant, global, market oriented, and democratic society. This new, second edition of Changing Structure of Mexico is a comprehensive and up-to-date presentation of Mexico's political, social, and economic issues. All chapters are new, and are written by noted Mexican and U.S. scholars. Changing Structure of Mexico provides a lucid and informative introductory reader on Mexico. The book covers such topics as Mexico's foreign economic policy and NAFTA; maquiladoras; and technology policy; domestic issues such as banking, tax reform, and oil/energy policy; the environment; population and migration policy; the changing structure of political parties; and changes affecting women and labor, as well as the values that underlie the remarkable changes in Mexico during the last two decades.
Studying the interaction of political and economic institutions in Mexico during the period of 1870-1930, this book shows how institutional change can foment economic growth.
This book is the first comprehensive and systematic English-language treatment of Mexico's economic history to appear in nearly forty years. Drawing on several years of in-depth research, Juan Carlos Moreno-Brid and Jaime Ros, two of the foremost experts on the Mexican economy, examine Mexico's current development policies and problems from a historical perspective. They review long-term trends in the Mexican economy and analyze past episodes of radical shifts in development strategy and in the role of markets and the state. This book provides an overview of Mexico's economic development since Independence that compares the successive periods of stagnation and growth that alternately have characterized Mexico's economic history. It gives special attention to developments since 1940, and it presents a re-evaluation of Mexico's development policies during the State-led industrialization period from 1940 to 1982 as well as during the more recent market reform process. This reevaluation is critical of the dominant trend in economic literature and is revisionist in arguing that, in particular, the market reforms undertaken by successive Mexican governments since 1983 have not addressed the fundamental obstacles to economic growth. Development and Growth in the Mexican Economy also details the country's pioneering role in launching NAFTA, its membership in the OECD, and its radical macroeconomic reforms. Carefully argued and meticulously researched, the book presents a wide-ranging, authoritative study that not only pinpoints problems, but also suggests solutions for removing obstacles to economic stability and pointing the Mexican economy toward the road to recovery.
This book analyzes the crisis Mexico experienced in 1982 on the basis of the historical evolution of Mexico's political and economic structures. The author’s purpose in writing this book is to provide an interpretation of Mexico's current problems in order to analyze what must be done to solve some profound dilemmas and to restructure Mexican society. The main dilemma Mexico faces is its vanishing consensus.

This text examines the responses to the challenges imposed by reforms in Mexico's economic and political systems, and the international economic community for transparent and fair business dealings. Weighing goals of economic reform against its results, prospects for further reforms are evaluated.
"Mexico is immersed in deep transformations. The country has opened to the world, liberalized its economy and moved to a more democratic system. There is an obvious need to understand the process. Dan Levy and Kate Bruhn's book is a well-balanced portrayal of Mexico's contemporary history, and of the role played by the United States. A must for those interested in understanding what is going on in Mexico."--Sergio Aguayo, author of "Myths and (Mis)Perceptions: Changing U.S. Elite Visions of Mexico" "A wonderful guide to the social, economic, and political changes in contemporary Mexico. It goes a long way to explaining the concurrent rise of narco-traffic, the victory of Fox, and the transformation of the Mexican economy in the 1990s. I learned a great deal from it."--Miguel Centeno, author of "Democracy Within Reason: Technocratic Revolution in Mexico"
