Abstract

BOLIVAR MEZA, Rosendo  and  DORANTES NOVA, Judith Araceli. The political and electoral reforms in the first three years of the government of Enrique Peña Nieto (2012-2015). Estud. polít. (Méx.) [online]. 2016, n.38, pp.89-116. ISSN 0185-1616.

In this article, the authors note that the political and electoral reforms in the first half of the government of Enrique Peña Nieto took place only in the field of legal and political superstructure, as they have not been an initiative that addresses violence, to reduce crime, create new jobs, to create conditions for economic growth or poverty reduction. In their opinion, the legal changes together with policy actions have not been sufficient to themselves to end or at least lessen, the major problems of the country.
