Abstract

Through this article we intend to study the fact that the functions of the State tend to change historically in Mexico and that they do not show homogeneously in the efforts of this institutional macrostructure to influence the dialectic of development/ underdevelopment. These changes, are a function of the reconfiguration of capitalism as a mode of production and civilizatory process, as well as of the gravitation exercised – in the middle of the transnationalization of strategic public decisions and the transcontinentalization of social relations – the global spaces for decision making. Starting from the objective that consists of identifying and interpreting the meaning of these renewed state functions, it is about entering into the direction taken by the public decisions and the different forces, factors and circumstances that affect the planning of development in an underdeveloped nation such as Mexico; not without leaving aside the specificities of public policies and intervention strategies of the public sector in a scenario marked by a state crisis increasingly pronounced because of the proliferation of factual powers that dispute the articulation of social life.
