Neoliberalism in Mexico has been established as a model for world domination, in which free market economy is projected over state interventionism. By adopting such regime the Mexican state and its organizational base structure has been gradually and unseasonably affected by marked changes in institutional, economic, political and social relationships. This essay raises first, an outline of what is also called “exploiter secondary model” and like this have been established historically in the social reality of Mexicans; unraveling social cohesion and generating changes in cultural and identity patterns increasing individualism and free competition from members of Mexican society. As second point, institutional research, economic and organizational implications that the incursion to free market has generated in fisheries in Mexico are addressed. How through dismantling the State and with the help of it, have been adopted disincorporation policies causing the disappearance of public institutions and credit support giving economic and organizational support to the fishing industry and impacting directly in the way of life from rural communities of fishing communities; reforming thereby productive patterns and community linkage.

Keywords : fisheries; institutions; neoliberal model; organization; policy; state.
