The Deterioration of the Mexican Presidency: The Years of Luis Echeverría (PROFMEX)

By Samuel Schmidt

The election of Luis Echeverr?a to the Mexican presidency in 1970 marked not only the first rise of a bureaucrat to that position but also the intensification--if not the beginning--of a decline in presidential power. Now available for the first time in English, Samuel Schmidt's study sees in Echeverr?a's administration the roots of Mexico's ongoing political crisis.
