It is very easy to miss the small things that suggest big concepts in Latin America, IN that respect it is always worth watching the Mexican government, Unlike the Brazilians, whose high functionaries are sometimes at the vanguard of the intellectual currents of Latin American development and regionalism, the Mexicans tend to be great barometers of the the phenomenology of the intellectual currents that tend to capture all the attention of a global elite audience (and their popularizers in the legacy press) always looking for something that may appeal to their sense of capacity building for the less fortunate.
PEMEX and Mexico, in this respect, ought to be on virtually everyone's radar. It represents the realities on the ground of the challenges and strategic uses of the petrochemical industry in the service of the State and in the process of illustrating the realities of a development focused approach, not just to climate change but to the imperatives of development as well. PEMEX has been challenged in both respects; it appears to be coming back, if only because of the necessity of providing the means through which Mexico can continue to develop, and in developing begin to more forcefully confront the issues of the unofficial and suppressed economies that are a drag on overall Mexican stability (and therefore on Mexican development).
More than that, petroleum is a means both of reducing dependence of the regional hierarch, and on the possibilities of advancing regionalism in actin--especially with respect to states like Cuba. Tp those ends President Sheinbaum's emphasis on a small aspect of this--PEMEX's Escolín de Poza Rica project is worth considering, both as a window into the way in which development is oriented in Mexico, and for its geo-political possibilities. The remarks summary follows below.
