EL COVID-19 EN MÉXICO. REFLEXIONES DESDE LA ESCUELA DE LA REGULACIÓN

Abstract

The French Regulation approach analyses social reproduction by integrating the socio-economic regime and the varieties of capitalism. This approach is used to reflect upon the effects of the spread of COVID-19 in Mexico, and to identify whether the actions of the government and businessmen during this juncture outline an alternative path towards neoliberalism. The actions deployed at the macroeconomic and meso-economic levels by these actors impede institutional change, at the same time they exhibit the displacement of popular sovereignty by judicial-isation, which is positioned as a significant source for the construction of economic space.
