| Description: |
This text argues that, instead of leading toward greater democratization, Mexico's policies of privatization in the 1980s were used for personal benefit, and to lubricate the existing state-labour relationship. It builds its case around the privatization of Mexico's telecommunications. |
| Synopsis: |
Privatization and policies of economic liberalization were regarded as key factors which would help lead Mexico towards a process of deeper democratization at the beginning of the 1980s. Using original research this book demonstrates that privatization generated new resources which were used for personal benefit and also to lubricate the existing state labour relationship. The case study at the heart of this book is the single most important privatization both in financial and political terms, the privatization of TELMEX, Mexico's national telecommunications monopoly, which occurred during the Salinas administration (1988 94), and the realities of the so called democratic "new unionism" movements led by the telephone workers' union. |
