PUCHET ANYUL, Martín; MORENO-BRID, Juan Carlos  y  RUIZ NAPOLES, Pablo. Mexico's Regional Integration with North America and Latin America: Challenges and Opportunities. Economía UNAM [online]. 2011, vol.8, n.23, pp.03-36. ISSN 1665-952X.

This brief study presents an overview of the agreements and treaties, on economic or trade matters, that Mexico has with countries in North America or in Latin America. It examines the evolution of trade, investment and migration during the last 25 years and the challenges and progress made by Mexico in these various attempts to strengthen its regional integration with the Northern and the Southern parts of the continent. The study includes a brief description of the different perceptions that the general public and parts of the elite have on Mexico's regional integration attempts. It shows that there is still work to be done in order to achieve a more dynamic strategic insertion of Mexico in the globalized world economy. For this to occur, Mexico's foreign policy must ensure that the country's insertion in the world is consistent with the economic and political considerations relevant for the national interests.

Palabras llave : Economic Integration; Commercial Policy; Comparative Studies of Countries.
