CARPIZO, Jorge. Does Mexico need a new Constitution? Some reflections and six proposals. Cuest. Const. [online]. 2011, n.24, pp.141-167. ISSN 1405-9193.
In Mexico a new constitution shall be issued when political and social realities require. However, for the time being, as the author points, it is no necessary because there are more negatives and dangerous aspects than positives, situation that could take us to a serious risk of democratic regression. At any case, when it is time to issue a new constitution we must trust it will be done by peaceful means and as an agreed project among the main political forces, submitting the final text to a referendum by the electorate. The Mexican Constitution of 1917 has been lasting due to, among other things, a social political brake has not taken place, its fundamental structured has been accepted by society; it has known how to evolve and change through the constitutional amendment and because it has promoted social peace.
