This paper contributes to the lack of analysis on the flypaper effect for the Mexican case, analyzing the larger number of municipalities (2,441) over 20 years (1990-2012). The presence of the flypaper effect is confirmed, but unlike Ibarra and Varella (2008); Cardenas and Sharma (2011) and Sour (2013), this paper finds that the increase in unconditional transfers proportionally increases local public spending. These results verify the prediction of Hines and Thaler (1995): money sticks where it hits. Also, the presence of the asymmetrical effect is confirmed. These results are incorporated into the discussion on fiscal federalism reform in Mexico. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper analyzes the various actions taken by the authorities of the state of Zacatecas (Mexico) during the First Federal Republic (1824-1835), in order to find solutions to problems related to the exercise of patronage and related topics. It shows that these proposals were useful to defend and drive federalism, and to advance a project to create a secular and liberal State and society. The paper concludes that the attempt to apply this was ambiguous, as it became part of the "pitfalls" that prevented the first federalism from consolidating by contributing to the division of local and national political groups.

This article synthesizes the trajectory of secondary education in Mexico during the first half of the 19th century, from the perspective of the government policies of the times. A broad explanation is given of the transformations and customs of secondary education as part of the process of conformation of the Mexican educational system. The paper is based on a review of the historically determined concept of secondary education, and studies the stages of the institutionalization of secondary school in the public sector. Consideration is given to colonial precedents, illustrated reforms, the changes generated by the Independence, and modifications promoted by central and federalist systems of government.
