Globalization, Democracy, and the State in Mexico: A Critical Analysis of Contemporary Trends of Governance, Privatization, and Regionalization
Abstract
During the late 1980s, the so-called democratic transitions in Latin
America were largely explained by looking into state actors and
institutions’ capability to accommodate democratic claims (O’ Donell and
Schmitter, 1986). This state-centric emphasis on top-down driven
democratizations was strongly criticized from different fronts and some
started to look into other factors contributing and/or hampering democratic
consolidation in the continent (Kaufman and Haggard, 1995; Grugel, 1999;
Grugel, 2002).
