Abstract
This document has two objectives: first, to evaluate the political parties’ contribution to Mexican democracy, second, to evaluate the actual situation of Mexican political transition. We intend to focus our analysis in the three most important political parties in the country: Partido de Acción Nacional (PAN), Partido Revolucionario Institucional (PRI), and Partido de la Revolución Democrática (PRD). The role of political parties in the building of Mexican democracy has been dissimilar. The PAN contributed to disseminate and to build institutions and democratic values; the PRI enhanced political stability and institutionality —two essential elements in democracy’s life—, and the PRD embodied social policies in Mexican democratic agenda. The methodology employed is more theoretical than historical because the conceptual component that impels the analysis is democratic theory. We’ll analyze only the last 25 years because Mexico has experimented the most important political changes in that period.
