A 50-Year Economic Analysis of Mexico’s Economy (1971-2020)

This paper is going to concentrate on the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), specifically Mexico. In the present paper, the authors will do an extensive economic evaluation of one of the members of NAFTA, Mexico. In our attempt to do that, we are going to discuss briefly the history of Mexico, and then present and discuss the most recent literature, including some of the things that preceded the joining of NAFTA, as well as some of the things that took place afterward. In the third section of the paper, the authors are going to present some of the most important economic data for Mexico, including but not limited to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), the Inflation Rate, the Unemployment Rates, etc. This data will be presented for 50 years (1971-2020) which gives us a good number of years before and after Mexico joined NAFTA.
