1990s political landscape in Mexico

The 1990s in Mexico saw significant political change, ending decades of single-party dominance by the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI). Widespread protests, economic crises, and rising demands for democracy led to reforms allowing greater electoral competition. The period saw the first reforms to open the political system, culminating in the election of opposition candidate Vicente Fox in 2000. The decade also experienced economic liberalization, NAFTA's implementation, and increased citizen activism, gradually transforming Mexico’s political landscape toward greater pluralism and democratic institutions.
