ArticlePublisher: Paris : ENA, avril/juin 2000Revue Française D'Administration Publique 94, p. 191-200Abstract: Mexico has entered into an era of important administrative reforms. The reforms that have been undertaken were preceded by attempts whose results were insignigicant. These attempts were based upon schemes which were imported from elsewhere, constructed according to foreign models and were badly adapted to the particular features of the administration in Mexico. Future reforms of Mexican administration must taken account of its particularities. No theoretical choice has been advanced for the reform of the administration in Mexico, but a comparison of its recent evolution with principles of 'new public management' provides a useful source of instruction. Whatever the virtues of new public management, the debate in Mexico must not be oriented around the pros and cons of a reduction in the role of the state, but rather should address the means by which the state's efficiency can be improved
