Abstract
El bienestar objetivo de las personas está estrechamente vinculado con la garantía de derechos sociales fundamentales como alimentación, salud, educación y vivienda. Este documento examina la relación entre política social y bienestar en México, enfocándose en cómo los derechos sociales se traducen en mecanismos de política pública. Se argumenta que el bienestar objetivo puede examinarse a través de un marco conceptual que vincula necesidades, derechos y política social. Metodológicamente, se desarrolla un instrumento cuantitativo para evaluar el cumplimiento de los derechos sociales y su impacto en el bienestar objetivo, permitiendo analizar el desempeño de la política pública. Los resultados muestran que, a pesar de algunos avances, la política social en México sigue caracterizada por una fragmentación estructural que limita su eficacia y genera inequidades en el acceso a derechos básicos, produciendo un cumplimiento heterogéneo que se refleja en niveles de bienestar parciales e insuficientes. Abstract Objective well-being is closely tied to the fulfillment of fundamental social rights including food, health, education, and housing. This paper examines the relationship between social policy and well-being in Mexico, focusing on how social rights translate into public policy mechanisms. We argue that objective well-being can be assessed through a conceptual framework linking needs, rights, and social policy. We develop a quantitative instrument to evaluate social rights fulfillment and its impact on objective well-being, enabling analysis of public policy performance across multiple dimensions. Findings reveal that despite some progress, Mexican social policy remains characterized by structural fragmentation that constrains effectiveness and generates inequities in access to basic rights. This results in heterogeneous rights fulfillment reflected in partial and insufficient well-being levels across the population, particularly affecting vulnerable groups who face systematic barriers to accessing adequate services and protections.
