This text argues that, instead of leading toward greater democratization, Mexico's policies of privatization in the 1980s were used for personal benefit, and to lubricate the existing state-labour relationship. It builds its case around the privatization of Mexico's telecommunications.

Previously she spent two years researching and lecturing at the Instituto Ortega y Gasset, Madrid, exploring telecommunications policy in Spain and Latin America.
