“…Stephen Krasner (1978) turned his attention to these cases as instances in which the US State Department successfully disputed foreign policy priorities with private companies, while Stephen Randall (2005) shows how these relative estrangements between state and companies were consequential for redefinitions on the structure of decision-making for US oil foreign policy. More recently, Maria Cecilia Zuleta (2011Zuleta ( , 2014 explored South American diplomatic reactions to the Mexican nationalization and the specific Bolivian perceptions of the Mexican experience.…”

In the 1930s the Bolivian and Mexican governments decreed the nationalization of their respective oil industries, thus starting a juncture of tensions in their relationship with the United States government and companies. In both cases foreign companies quit the respective host countries, but Bolivia was less successful than Mexico in maintaining its initial stand in face of the external pressure. Following a most-similar-system design strategy to compare both cases of asymmetrical confrontation, which share a similar set of conditions regarding simultaneity, starting causes of the conflict, actors involved and international context, we contend that the difference in the confrontation’s resolution is mainly attributable to differing domestic variables. Controlling for the similarity in external conditions, we show that the building and maintenance of a strong internal support coalition was critical for the capacity of the weakest part to advance its interest in an asymmetrical atmosphere.

El presente artículo se enfoca en analizar cómo la política de Lázaro Cárdenas representó un modelo para la izquierda francesa. Víctima de prejuicios negativos como país violento y “bolchevique”, México también suscitó admiración e interés entre algunos franceses. El México cardenista pareció causar esperanza para una izquierda que se preparaba para gobernar Francia. Sectores insistieron en su política antifascista –por su apoyo a la República española– o presentaron a México como modelo alternativo a la URSS. Además, la expropiación petrolera de 1938 fue percibida como una medida anticapitalista audaz que merecería ser adaptada al escenario francés. Para ello, se procede a una presentación de los elementos de admiración e interés manifestados por la prensa de izquierda francesa. De esta forma es posible considerar que el cardenismo también se ilustró como paradigma para la izquierda francesa.
