This paper presents information resulting from an AID-sponsored study between 1977-78 on growth and equity in Mexico. Covering Mexican economic history since 1930, the study examines the relationship between overall economic growth and the distribution of that growth in Mexico. Patterns of growth were compared with other actual or conceptual models, bearing in mind recent literature on meeting basic human needs. Four types of information were collected and analyzed: (1) time series statistical data; (2) intermittent statistical data; (3) data and information generated by studies of economic growth and equity in Mexico; and (4) information generated by interviews with scholars and officials in the U.S. and Mexico.

Assessments of improvements in status and incomes for poorer Mexicans yield mixed results. The poorest 40% of Mexican families are presently as disadvantaged as they were 20 years ago; the remaining 60%, however, are comparatively better off than 2 decades ago. Benefits from agricultural investments have accrued primarily to large commercial farmers in recent de

Axis: years in documents. The start year comes from first seen; the end is the latest document year, so the program may have run longer.
