PARDO, María del Carmen. The Administrative Modernization of the Government of Felipe Calderón: Between Austerity and Reform. Foro int [online]. 2015, vol.55, n.1, pp.83-115. ISSN 0185-013X.

This paper examines the process of administrative modernization of the government of Felipe Calderón in the light of its political context and seeks to compare it with the actions undertaken during the government of Vicente Fox. It further analyzes the strategies implemented and the results obtained. The underlying premise is that the contextual political and economic factors relating to when the government enters office and prevailing during the administration conditioned the scope of the administrative modernization and placed limits on its utility. Although isolated changes were achieved, a comprehensive process of reform was not established in order to strengthen the government, at least at the federal level.

Palabras llave : administrative modernization; austerity; professionalization; evaluation.
