VALENCIA LOMELI, Enrique. Debates on welfare regimes in Latin America and East Asia: The cases of Mexico and South Corea. Espiral (Guadalaj.) [online]. 2010, vol.16, n.47, pp.65-103. ISSN 1665-0565.
Comparative research about welfare regimes has belatedly developed in Latin America and East Asia. This article presents a comparison and balance between recent debates about welfare regimes in South Corea and Mexico. An analysis is proposed about South Corea's gradual abandonment of a residual regime and adoption of a universalist institutionalization, in the wake of limited markets and governed by public action in social policy, still family-oriented and socially strong but in decline. A study is proposed of how in Mexico a dualist regime has become entrenched with instances which harden stratification in the social security system and protection for the poor. This renders more difficult the resurgence of a sociopolitical coalition in favor of social citizenship.
