Presidentialism and elite in the political change in Mexico
Abstract
This essay analyzes the changes in the presidential institution during president Zedillos administration and its effects on the political elite. The main assumption is that the presidents extremely legalistic attitude has inhibited political actions and has introduced higher levels of uncertainty, especially in regards to the selection of the next PRI presidential candidate. Despite the growth of opposition parties, there is not sufficient evidence that an opposition party will win the next presidential electionDownloads
