F The Missing Reform: Strengthening The Rule Of Law In Mexico BY VIRIDIANA RÍOS he approval of the package of widely praised structural reforms has not had the effect that observers and policy makers were ex- Tpecting. It had been estimated that after approval of the reforms Mexico’s economy would grow by 4.9 percent by 2016, about 1.2 per- centage points above the inertial growth projection of 3.7 percent (SHCP 2013). Yet, Mexico grew just above 2 percent in 2016 (Banco de México 2016). The education reform required that all public school teachers be tested to obtain a position, yet in states such as the State of Mexico less than 16 percent of the slots for teachers are subject to testing (Hernán- dez 2016). The Anti-Trust Commission created by the celebrated com- petition reform remains understaffed and poorly funded, with an annual budget of USD$25 million, about 14 percent of the resources allocated to the U.S. Antitrust Division (USDJ 2016, SHCP 2016). Furthermore, 52.4 percent of Mexico’s labor force is still made up of informal sector work- ers, more or less the same proportion as in 2012 (54.8 percent) before the labor reform was implemented (ENOE III-2013, III-2016). The lack of results has been somewhat surprising, given that approval of the structural reforms was taken as an unequivocal sign of fast-moving political and economic development in Mexico. Mexico earned interna- tional acclaim for being capable of achieving, in a couple of years, what other Latin American countries had struggled for decades to do: bring together political parties from across the political spectrum to pass deep THE MISSING REFORM: STRENGTHENING THE RULE OF LAW IN MEXICO 2 structural reforms in several key sectors. The reforms targeted issues such as lack of competition in private enterprise, perverse labor incen- tives inside the education sector, poor energy infrastructure, widespread informality of labor, monopolistic structures in telecommunications, and inadequate transparency regarding spending at the state level (Banco de México 2015). In retrospect, the approval of the reforms proved to be an easy step. Turning structural reforms into reality, moving them from paper to imple- mentation, was where the real work lay. An anti-trust agency was creat- ed as part of the competition reform but the existence of unwritten priv- ileges for some market players have allowed them to ignore its findings and regulations. A labor reform was approved to better incentivize public teachers, but disagreeing on how to measure performance stopped the reform from being implemented in full. The impact of recently approved reforms in energy and telecommunications will remain incomplete as long as insecurity, extortion, and corruption continue to permeate pro- duction processes and competitiveness. This is not the first time in which magnificent reforms on paper have be- come diluted policies. By 2016, Mexico was supposed to have finished implementing a historical transformation of its judicial system, shifting trials from inquisitorial to adversarial procedures. This transformation, approved in 2008, was meant to apply, among other innovations, oral trials, mediation, and mechanisms of alternative justice. As of now, im- plementation is far from a reality since only four out of 32 states were able to fully implement the adversarial judicial system by 2016 (Proyecto Justicia 2016). Implementation of the judicial reform is particularly worrisome as impu- nity, corruption, and other rule of law issues have been systematically identified as the main factors that inhibit the implementation of other structural reforms and also inhibit competitiveness and political and eco- nomic development in general. About 28 percent of the adult population is the victim of a crime every year in Mexico, and 92.8 percent of those crimes are never reported because of lack of trust in the authorities INTRODUCTION 3 (ENVIPE 2016). That is not surprising given that in states like Sinaloa half of the police force fail integrity tests, and nationwide the figure is 10 percent (SENSP 2016). About 12 percent of Mexicans who had contact with authorities were victims of corruption (ENCIG 2015). In fact, Mexico is ranked in the bottom 10 percent of 138 countries in reliability of police services, business costs required for combatting crime and violence, and ethics and corruption in the Global Competitiveness Index. Furthermore, businesspeople consider corruption the most problematic factor for do- ing business in Mexico (WEF 2016). This book explores a new hypothesis as to why the approval of Mexico’s groundbreaking structural reforms has not been able to live up to expec- tations. We argue that the time in which Mexico’s structural lags could be tempered by improving legislation and creating new laws has come to an end. To turn approved structural reforms into tangible benefits for all Mexicans, the country needs to transition to performing a much more complicated task: implement the rule of law. Making sure that rules ap- ply to all and everybody in the same way, independently of income, pow- er, or status, is the most imperative pending task of Mexico.

  • Transforming Mexico: Social Movements, Human Rights and Social Media
    Transforming Mexico: social movements, human rights and social media By: Rupert Knox A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Sheffield School of Languages and Cultures and Department of Sociological Studies Faculty of Arts and Humanities and Faculty of Social Sciences Submission date: 14 November 2018 Abstract Mexico’s partial democratic transition resulted in widespread violence, human rights violations, inequality, corruption and impunity, frustrating the hopes and aspirations of many sections of society. However, between 2011 and 2016 three major social movements emerged to challenge injustice and demand social change. The Movement for Peace and Justice with Dignity, YoSoy132 and Ayotzinapa 43 were plural non- institutional social mobilizations empowering those victimised and marginalized in the defective democratic settlement. Human rights discourse and digital and social media have become embedded in political discourse and social practice around the world, but their meaning, uses and implications are complex and contested. This thesis examines their role in contentious collective movements in Mexico’s specific socio-political context. Qualitative case study research methods are used to examine their dynamic uses and meanings in the three mobilization processes in order to explore their enabling and constraining features. The thesis also draws on the author’s previous experience as an international human rights advocate and researcher working on Latin America. The research shows the diverse ways that human rights discourse and digital and social media feature in the practice and meaning of each movement. They are understood to enhance key aspects of civil society mobilization processes, such as strengthening the impact of trigger events and enabling the configuration of skilled support networks, but also to entail certain constraining logics which the movements grapple with to sustain contention.

  • The Civil Society-Driven Anti-Corruption Push in Mexico During the Enrique
    MEXICO CASE STUDY Rise and Fall: Mexican Civil Society’s Anti-Corruption Push in the Peña Nieto Years Roberto Simon AS/COA Anti Corruption Working Group Mexican Civil Society’s Anti-Corruption Push in the Peña Nieto Years Rise and Fall: Mexican Civil Society’s Anti-Corruption Push in the Peña Nieto Years Mexico City — “Saving Mexico” declared the cover of Time magazine, alongside a portrait of President Enrique Peña Nieto gazing confidently toward the future.1 Elected in 2012, Peña Nieto had been in power for only 15 months, yet already his bold reform agenda — dubbed the “Pacto por Mexico” (Pact for Mexico) — had made him a darling of global investors. Time noted that the president — “assisted by a group of young technocrats (including) Finance Minister Luis Videgaray and Pemex chief Emilio Lozoya” — was making history by breaking Mexico’s eight-decade state monopoly over the energy industry. “And the oil reform might not even be Peña Nieto’s most important victory,” the magazine said. There was “evidence” that Peña Nieto was about to “challenge Mexico’s entrenched powers.” While most investors focused on the deep regulatory changes under way, leading Mexican civil society organizations were looking at another critical promise in the Pacto por Mexico: fighting endemic corruption. “For centuries, corruption has been one of the central elements of the Mexican state (and) a constant in shaping the political system,” said Jorge Buendía, a prominent pollster and political analyst. A powerful governor from the 1960s to the 1980s allegedly once said that in Mexico “a poor politician is a poor politician.”2 And by the time Peña Nieto came to power, most in the country believed that things hadn’t really changed.
