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.
In December 1990 the Salinas government sold its controlling stake in Teléfonos de México (Telmex) to a consortium led by Grupo Carso (Carlos Slim), Southwestern Bell, and France Télécom for roughly USD 1.76 billion. The concession granted six years of fixed-line monopoly with mandated network-build targets and price-cap regulation, and became the template for subsequent Salinas privatisations and the structural concentration that defined Mexican telecoms for decades.
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.
