- Title
Mexico's Foreign Policy towards Africa, 2006-2012: An End to Short-Term Measures?

- Abstract
Taking as a reference point the historical development of relations between Mexico and Africa, it is suggested that although changes in foreign policy were observed, these were not of any substance in the case of Africa. In Mexico's foreign policy a self-ascription as an emerging middle power was evident (although this concept does not appear in official documents), which in Africa translated into the deployment of a large number of activities. However, it is likely that these are short-term in nature. Moreover, with regard to the foreign policy objective of supporting internal development, not enough evidence was found to support this assumption.
