Abstract

VARGAS GONZALEZ, Pablo. Reinsertion of civil organizations in Mexico: A comparative study of the Ley de Fomento in ten states. Espiral (Guadalaj.) [online]. 2012, vol.19, n.53, pp.125-149. ISSN 1665-0565.

Beginning in 2004, with the issuing of the Ley Federal de Fomento a las Actividades Realizadas por Organizaciones de la Sociedad Civil (The Federal Act for Promoting Activities Undertaken by the Civil Society) an usual impulse was given to the formation and strengthening of civil and citizen organizations in Mexico. This act represents an achievement for the citizenry in the democratic transition. Nevertheless, it has not been enough for the formation of social actors in the local development. This situation is compounded by the fact that so far only ten federal entities have made an effort to impulse organized civil society. This article's objective is to present a comparative analysis of the local osc promotion laws, to show their achievements and formal limits and their possible repercussion in generating conditions for constructing citizenry and social actors.

Keywords : civil organizations; incidence; Ley de Fomento a las Actividades de la Sociedad Civil; citizenry construction.
