CARPIZO, Jorge. La reforma del Estado en 2007 y 2008. Cuest. Const. [online]. 2008, n.19, pp.19-48. ISSN 1405-9193.

Through the notion of plasticity in the reform of the Mexican Constitution, that started in 1988 as a result of the dialogue and political negotiation of necessary coalitions, the author summarizes the constitutional reforms beginning with the political reform of 1977, followed by the reforms that took place since then and until 2001, as well as those of the presidential term 2000-2006, and ends by specifically referring to the reforms of 2007, where the process of State reform during 2000 to 2007 is emphasized. An important part of the article presents considerations about the judicial reform of 2008 and about the State and Government regime. The experience of dialogue and political negotiation gained during the last decades, the author concludes, is necessary for the process of Constitutional reform to continue peacefully.

Palabras llave : constitutional reform; state reform; Judicial reform; Government and State regimes.
