Abstract

This review of La larga marcha de la economía mexicana by Enrique Cárdenas summarizes an approach to more than two centuries of economic history in Mexico and highlights the book’s ambition, scope and utility. According to this overview, Cardenas’s panoramic perspective allows us to observe different stages in the Mexican economy, starting with the Bourbon reforms, continuing with episodes of instability for much of the nineteenth century, peace and growth during the time of Porfirio Díaz, the outbreak of the Mexican Revolution, the phase of construction of institutions and growth with stability, successive crises in the decades of the seventies, eighties and nineties, and ending with more recent processes of modernization and reform. This book by Cardenas identifies constants that have led to crisis and economic precariousness and helps us learn from the past.// Esta reseña sobre el libro de Enrique Cárdenas La larga marcha de la economía mexicana, resume un acercamiento a más de dos siglos de historia económica de México y destaca su ambición, alcance y utilidad. De acuerdo a esta reseña, la visión panorámica de Cárdenas permite observar las distintas etapas de la economía mexicana a partir de las reformas borbónicas, continuando con los episodios de inestabilidad durante buena parte del sigo XIX, el periodo de paz y crecimiento porfirista, el estallido de la Revolución Mexicana, la etapa de construcción de instituciones y crecimiento con estabilidad, las crisis sucesivas de los años setenta, ochenta y noventa y hasta los procesos más recientes de modernización y reformas. El libro de Cárdenas permite identificar constantes que han significado crisis y precariedad económica y contribuye a aprender del pasado.
