Mexico offers a particularly interesting study of economic reform because
of its successes and its ambitious scale. As that country's current Minister of
Finance and Public Credit and a distinguished economist, Pedro Aspe offers an
informed, inside look at attempts to modernize Mexico's economy through the 1970s
and 1980s. Aspe examines how Mexico has tried to stabilize its economy with measures
such as economic deregulation, fiscal reform, privatization of state-owned
enterprises, and realistic budget management. He argues that these changes have had
not only profound economic effects, but social and political ones as well.Aspe first
discusses Mexico's experience with macroeconomic stabilization, emphasizing its
social and political aspects, and noting the successes already achieved in terms of
stabilization, production, and employment. In the extended analysis of the Mexican
economy that follows, he focuses on the structural impact of state reform on the
external sector, and on the efficiency and distributional impacts of fiscal reform.
Such macroeconomic adjustments, Aspe points out, have resulted in the gradual
replacement of the state in its role as leader of Mexico's economic development by
the participation of an entire society - an achievement that is the result of the
orderly negotiation and consensus of workers, farmers, entrepreneurs, and
government.Aspe concludes with a summary of the way in which all of these changes
have brought about the profound transformation of Mexico's economy.
