Abstract
VELAZQUEZ FLORES, Rafael and ALBA ULLOA, Jessica L. de. Internal and external factors in mexican foreign policy (2012-2018): a general evaluation. Foro int [online]. 2019, vol.59, n.3-4, pp.671-701. Epub Aug 15, 2019. ISSN 0185-013X. https://doi.org/10.24201/fi.v59i3-4.2637.
The objective of this article is to evaluate the foreign policy of Mexico during the Enrique Peña Nieto administration. The main argument is that this activity was deeply conditioned by internal and external factors in different stages of the term. The first part identifies the main foreign policy goals of the Peña administration. The second one divides the term into four stages: from 2012 to 2014, which develops the structural reforms that impacted Mexico’s foreign policy; from 2014 to 2016 that analyzes domestic issues; from 2016 to mid-2018 when Donald Trump appeared on the political scene; and from mid-2018 until the end of the administration. The last part evaluates the fulfillment of the objectives set at the beginning of the administration.
