Modernity, Politics and Corruption
Examines Mexican politics in the wake of Cardenismo and the dawn of Aleman's presidency. The author also analyzes the cultural history of Mexico, focusing on the period of economic growth and political stability known as "the miracle".Fundamentally concerned with political and economic issues at the national level, Niblo (history, La Trobe U., Melbourne) explores the post Cardenas regimes of Mexico as they shifted from a radical economic nationalism to a more orthodox pattern of unlimited capital accumulation and a closer accommodation to the interests and policies of the United States. He argues that the new economic pattern was heavily responsible for the official corruption and centralization evident in this period. The shift to neoliberalism in the 1980s and 1990s was one of degree and not of kind, according to his view. |
