AB  - This article analyzes the relationship between budget and foreign policy
in the case of Mexico. The objective is to identify and analyze the
general tendencies of the Mexican government of budget policy in the
foreign policy realm. There are two particular objectives: 1) to describe
the process of budget allocation in the federal government, particularly
in the Mexican Foreign Affairs Ministry (SRE); and 2) to identify the
behavior patterns of the budget policy of the Mexican Foreign Affairs
Ministry in the last years.
The key argument of the article is that the SRE budget does not
depend on the Mexican government foreign policy priorities or on the
international environment, but it strongly depends on conjuncture
phenomena of economic and fi nancial nature basically. In other
words, the SRE budget does not respond directly to strategic necessities
of Mexican foreign policy, but to fi nancial and macroeconomic necessities,
such as GNP growth, infl ation, remittances, dollar-peso change
rate, oil revenues, among others.
The paper is divided in two parts. The fi rst one describes the process
of budget allocation in a general way. The second part analyzes
the budget policy of the Mexican Foreign Affairs Ministry.
