section Summary
 
 
Political corruption trickles down the entire social and economic skeleton of Mexico, or formally, The United Mexican States. The system of corruption is undoubtedly to blame for the state’s lack of development- but to what extent? Starting with the state’s most authoritative leaders and policy makers, the corruption that has become a permanent fixture in Mexico exists in every facet of the society. Can any one factor be cited as a catalyst, or necessary component for this corruption to run such a rampant course? Can any one characteristic of a nation mired in corruption be singled out as explanatory, like colonialism or imperialism? In contemporary Mexican society, corruption is part of life. Much like the majority of nations in the world, there is a vast system in place which operates a nation, government. Whether a family of five living in Chihuahua will be granted a housing subsidy, or if an outspoken politician across the nation is assonated; these are merely events occurring within a government. However, in Mexico, the high level of corruption is hindering the progress of the nation.
