Trade policy openness — tariffs, non-tariff barriers, FTAs, industrial protection.
Product-market regulation, entry barriers, licensing burdens, network-industry regulation, price controls.
Security of private property rights — formal recognition, expropriation risk, titling systems.
De jure and de facto independence of the central bank from fiscal authority. Per D.1.5 scope, one of the framework's defensible monetary positions.
The Pacto de Solidaridad Económica, launched in December 1987 by the De la Madrid government and extended under Salinas as the Pacto para la Estabilidad y el Crecimiento Económico, was a heterodox stabilisation accord among government, business chambers, labour, and farmers. It froze the peso, controlled key prices and wages, and locked in fiscal restraint to break the inflationary inertia that followed the 1982 debt crisis, providing the macro foundation for subsequent NAFTA-era reforms.
Per invariant 3, reforms are scored by what they did on each channel-separated axis, not by the party that enacted them. This fingerprint is how the policy-match engine finds historical analogues.
Explicit links are curated by the author. Inferred links are hypotheses in the library that test the same axes this policy moved — the framework's answer to "what does the data say about a policy like this?".
Ranked by axis-fingerprint overlap with this policy. Direction match bolded — those are the closest historical analogues. Shape of the match is what drives policy-outcome comparison, not the country or party label.
