Autonomous Constitutional Bodies, horizontal accountability and liberal democracy in Mexico: 1990-2020
Abstract
The objective of this research is to describe the state of horizontal accountability and analyze the quality of democracy in Mexico. In addition to a documentary review, for this purpose the V-Dem databases were used in what corresponds for two indicators: Executive Oversight and Liberal Democracy Index. The results show the return of the old mexican presidentialism, a disappointing performance of this country in both indices and, most worryingly, in decline. Among the conclusions, it is noted that, as a result, it cannot be affirmed that in Mexico there is a true rule of law, a complete separation of powers and a full democracy.
