Abstract

The Sino-Mexican relationship was developed amidst diplomatic divergences, economic competition, and the creation of new alliances. It is not new that the rise of China as a worldwide economic power brought some collateral consequences to the international community. Mexican economy is mostly specialized in manufacturing production; therefore, the inclusion of Chinese massive manufacture into the international market is causing high repercussions within the country. In addition, the evident inequality in trading and lack of representative investment from China indicates a clear disadvantage for Mexico. Meanwhile, Mexico maintains a positive attitude towards the PRC and could develop a change in the direction of the policies applied to China. This study exhibits the causes and consequence of the market competition between both countries. Within the study, one can conclude that Mexico is the perfect example of a country that valued a possible threat to transform it into an opportunity for both parties.
