Abstract: The North America Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) was regarded as an economic agreement, but it is now realized that its social implications could overshadow its financial effects. The agreement has dramatically accentuated change in Mexico and created a need for paradigms facilitating understanding of the succession of crises facing the country. Political culture analysis, the authors argue, is a suitable lens through which post-NAFTA Mexico can be viewed, but it must struggle against outdated approaches flavored by Marxism and dependency theory.
