Abstract
This paper sets out to explore the changing political and economic landscape of the Mexican state against the backdrop of the growing disciplinary power of the globalised financial markets (e.g., capital flight and investment strikes). Specifically it asks if the general defining characteristics of a neoliberal “competition state” found in the advanced industrialised countries (AICs) can be applied to the Mexican case. The paper sustains that although the Mexican state conforms to the basic features of a neoliberal competition state, this transformation has brought about neither sustained economic growth nor less dependence on external sources of capital. A fundamental reason for this failure lies in the highly contradictory nature of the stale's neoliberal policy formulation that is marked by domestic objectives such as subduing class conflict and international exigencies such as signalling creditworthiness.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
