“…En cuanto a la estructura partidista cabe mencionar que México luego de 1997 experimentó un cambio importante el la composición de la Honorable Cámara de Diputados. Desde 1929 hasta 1997 había existido mayoría del Partido Revolucionario Institucional (PRI), y las modificaciones a la propuesta de presupuesto del ejecutivo por parte de la Cámara de Diputados se caracterizaron por ser ocasionales y poco significativas (Wilkie, 1973y Casar, 2001. Sin embargo, desde 1997 la Cámara se constituyó de manera más plural y se empezaron a evidenciar modificaciones más regulares al presupuesto.…”

México's demographic transition: Public policy and spatial process

et al. 2000

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

A logistic growth equation is used to model M~xico's epidemiological and fertility transitions, creating variables used to model the spatial diffusion of demographic change across the states. Consistent with the goals of the L~zaro C~rdenas administration, the epidemiological transition unfolded uniformly across the states, accessible to rich and poor alike, but the urban-oriented family planning programs introduced by Luis Echeverria have favored elites, have diffused selectively, and have ensured that the burdens of the population explosion have borne down most heavily on the poor and the remote.

The subject of colonialism is still imbued with emotive overtones, and it is perhaps too early to expect complete agreement in the description and evaluation of the impact of colonial rule on Africa. This article utilizes an important indicator of government activity, public expenditure decisions, to aid in describing the nature of British rule in the Gold Coast from 1901 to 1939. The intention is twofold: first, to check the validity of certain propositions about British colonialism and, second, to investigate how well the apparent uniqueness of one particular Governor, F. Gorgon Guggisberg (1919-1927), is supported by this information source. The descriptive strengths of government expenditure data are readily apparent. Expenditure is quantified and thus fairly comparable both over time and cross-nationally. Moreover, expenditure provides an empirical measure of nearly the entire range of government activities. Consequently, changes in governmental goals might be expected to be reflected in expenditure allocations. There are, however, several problems which may impair the usefulness of government expenditure as a descriptive tool. First, every government, even the wealthiest, must operate within the constraints placed on it by the size of the revenue and, more fundamentally, the structure of the national economy. Strongly desired programs may, therefore, languish because of a shortage of funds. As is the case elsewhere in the social world, objective acts are often imperfect measures of subjective motivations. Second, the distribution of funds among various sectors is not always amenable to rapid restructuring, so that a change in goals may be sluggishly reflected in government expenditure.
