Notes

1. According to information provided by Mexico's Office of Statistics of the Secretariat of Budget and Planning, Mexico's population in 1980 reached 69, not 73, million inhabitants. In addition, PEMEX's Memoria de Labores and the Banco de México's Informe Anual are considered more reliable sources than the Economic Intelligence Weekly for data pertaining to revenues received from oil exports.

2. Readers interested in this topic are referred to Gabriel Székely, La economía política del petróleo en México, 1976-1982 (Mexico City: El Colegio de México, 1983).

3. Secretaría de Programación y Presupuesto, “Acuerdo que establece normas que deberán observarse en la ejecución de obras públicas,” Diario Oficial (Mexico City), 30 January 1984, pp. 8-11.

4. A seminar on Mexico's military was recently held at the Center for U.S.-Mexican Studies of the University of California at San Diego. The papers presented there should be of special interest to the specialist on Mexican politics.
