In Mexico, as in the rest of Latin America and the Caribbean, marginalization persists as an old problem of underdevelopment. Therefore, our aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of social policy in Mexico in the light of the incidence of marginalization, defined as the lack of one or several of the nine basic satisfiers. The present study measures this based on the CONAPO's IM index, in illustrative correspondence between Sonora and it regions, as well as the changes observed in the last decades of the twentieth century. Meanwhile, comparing the results with the CONAPO data for 2000, we find a reversal. For this reason, one of the important reasons for taking on this study is to provide the tools to support an evaluation of the same policy in other federal entities.
