Reflexiones sobre federalismo y sistema político en México
Abstract
Abstract: This paper analyzes two basic features ofMexico's federal political organization: the Senate's design and the constitutional limitations of the Supreme Court to intervene in electoral matters. I argue that Mexican federalism has tried to conciliate the construction of a strong federal government with the maintenance of regional autonomies. As a result, a presidency capable of predominating over Congress and the Supreme Court, and with the power to resolve state-federative conflict and interstate disputes was designed. It concludes that the functioning of federalism in Mexico and its practical results political and economic centralization do not contradict the present constitutional framework as it is frequently assumed, but are instead a consequence of the institutional arrangement adopted in the Constitution
