Abstract

The discussion about Mexican history, since the middle of the 19th century until the beginningof the 21st, contributes to the debate about the causes of the beginning of thetransition towards democracy and the consolidation of democratic institutions in Mexico.The main cause of the beginning of the transition was not the economic reform, nor freetrade or globalization; nor is the consolidation of democracy an inevitable outcome of thistransition, even though the conditions for its consolidation are present. In order to betterunderstand the beginning of the transition towards democracy in Mexico, it is necessaryto analyze why the past transitions failed, and which is the actual context that makes thistransition completely different from the former ones.
