墨西哥的腐败问题与反腐败斗争

The Corruption and Anti-corruption Campaign of Mexico

腐败与反腐败是墨西哥当代政治发展进程中的恒久命题。墨西哥政府在反腐败的制度和法律建设方面付出很多努力,取得不少进展,特别是2017年启动的国家反腐败体系。但是,从国际通用的腐败评测指标来看,墨西哥的腐败问题依然非常严重,官商勾连、有组织犯罪的渗透,使得腐败更加难以遏制。行政/官僚腐败泛滥,政治腐败严重危害墨西哥的政治民主、经济发展和社会进步。墨西哥腐败问题的长期存在,可以从历史传统、制度缺陷、腐败的动态特征、合法性文化等角度来解释。

Corruption and anti-corruption are permanent topics in Mexico’s contemporary political development.The Mexican government has made great efforts in the construction of anti-corruption legal system and institution building, and much progress has been achieved, a typical example of which is the National Anti-corruption System launched in 2017. However, according to some international evaluation metrics, Mexico’s corruption remains very serious. Moreover, the collusion between government and business and the infiltration of organized crime make corruption more difficult to be curbed. The administrative corruption spreads unchecked, which has seriously jeopardized Mexico’s political democracy, economic development and social progress. The long-standing problem of corruption in Mexico can be explained from the perspectives of historical tradition, institutional defects, the variation of corruption patterns and lack of legitimacy culture.
