This book undertakes two main tasks. First, it provides an overview of
Sino-Mexican trade and economic relations since the normalization of
diplomatic relations in the 1980s. Second, it presents a re-evaluation
of Mexico's trade policies with China, from the import substitution
industrialization (ISI) period in the early 1990s to the strengthening
of economic and trade relations in recent years.
Both aspects are addressed within a unified framework by documenting
historical events and conducting empirical analyses throughout Mexico's
economic development, which has been characterized by both growth and
stagnation. The book analyzes the Sino-Mexican trade conflicts and
cooperation by examining cases of antidumping (AD) and flows of
international trade, and by addressing the current obstacles.
