Keywords:
nationalization, political parties, party systems, electionsAbstract
Electoral reforms and the emergence of intense party competition have been two crucialparts of the Mexican transition to democracy. The conceptual distinction between competitionand competitiveness, and the creation of a method to study and measure fairerrules of competition and changes in electoral competitiveness, allow to analyse, in a systematicway, the impact of fairer electoral rules on competitiveness in local (municipal)and federal (majority districts) elections in Mexico in the 1977-97 period. Based on a statisticalanalysis, evidence suggests that, among the institutional and socio-economic variablesexplored, the degree of fairness of electoral laws constitutes a crucial factor inexplaining the variation of competitiveness.
