Title: Mexico and the Sexenio Curse
Description: "Since 1976 Mexico has experienced an economic crisis at the end of every sexenio - Mexico's six-year presidential term - even though the transitions involved the same political party. Economist Jonathan Heath analyzes the causes and intensities of past crises and questions whether Mexico's current policies are consistent with avoiding the "sexenio curse.""--BOOK JACKET.
