Abstract
NOLAN GARCIA, Kimberly A.. Internalización de las normas laborales internacionales en el marco del TLCAN: el caso mexicano. Norteamérica [online]. 2014, vol.9, n.1, pp.111-142. ISSN 2448-7228.
Based on the Mexico's responses to the North American Agreement on Labor Cooperation (NAALC), this article evaluates whether the parallel labor agreement has spurred Mexico to adopt international labor rights norms and therefore, if the "spiral model" can explain the improved protection of these rights in Mexico. The author suggests that even when labor agreements are weak, transnational defense networks can lead states to accept international labor norms, which can result in strengthening labor protections inside a country.
Keywords : NAALC; transnational defense networks; spiral model; labor rights; Mexico.
