Intervencionismo neoliberal y desregulación financiera: evolución institucional del sector bancario en México

Abstract

THIS ARTICLE EXAMINES THREE IMPORTANT MOMENTS IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE MEXICAN BANKING SECTOR: NATIONALIZATION, PRIVATIZATION AND "PRIVATIZING NATIONALIZATION". IT ARGUES THAT THE NEOLIBERAL MODEL IN MEXICO HAS IMPLIED RESHAPING OF THE STATE RATHER THAN ITS RETREAT. ALSO, THE HYPOTHETICAL DISSOLUTION OF INTEREST GROUPS UNDER NEOLIBERALISM HAS NOT BEEN POSSIBLE BECAUSE OF THE EMERGENCE OF NEW "DISTRIBUTIONAL COALITIONS" AND INTEREST GROUPS ORGANIZED AROUND NEW POLITICAL COMMITMENTS.
