The authors of this paper set out the changes in foreign policy proposed by the government of Enrique Peña Nieto towards China, and contrast them with Mexican government tradition in this sphere. They describe and analyze the purpose of strategic associations for Beijing, and how these have evolved in terms of the relationship with its Mexican counterpart. The paper further analyzes the institutional perspective and the fragmentation of the actors in the sectors of footwear, mining, and petroleum; and finally sketches out what the new Comprehensive Strategic Association could mean for the future of the relationship.

Palabras llave : Mexico; China; Comprehensive Strategic Association; functionalism; raw materials.
