Sample text

Under the 1824 Constitution, the powers of governance were divided between a federal government and nineteen state legislatures. Within the federal government, the constitution called for a separation of powers between the president, a bicameral congress, and the judiciary. Although on paper, the Mexican Constitution was designed to prevent the accumulation of power in any one office, the challenges facing the emerging Mexican nation contributed to significant disparities between constitutional provisions and actual political practices.

The president has the ultimate power to decide what will become law. The president’s signature is required to enact all legislation and the congress possesses no power to force a president to sign a bill into law. In addition, the president has the power to issue basic rules (reglamentos) without any consultation with the congress, and these statutory regulations carry the full force of law. Under the constitution, the president is limited to one, six-year term (sexenio). The 1917 Constitution recognized certain social rights for workers and peasants and for the organizations that represented them in the political process.

A group called Alianza Cívica composed of hundreds of small NGOs formed a campaign to clean up the electoral system (Franceschet and Macdonald 2004, 15). Mexico also experienced increased international pressure to democratize, after years in which the United States and other international actors had ignored the country’s human rights abuses. In addition to the challenge from the left, the PRI faced a strong challenge from the political right, from the Partido Acción Nacional (PAN, National Action Party), which organized its campaigns for political offices around the theme of free and fair elections and an end to political corruption.
