The Structural Change in the Economy of the United Mexican States
 Matzek, Jan ; Sejkora, Jiří (advisor) ; Hasík, Gabriel (referee)
The aim of this paper is to identify and asses the structural change in the economy of the United Mexican States in the period from 1940 until the early 2000s. The data analysis is focused on identifying the trends in the context of Lewis' dual economy model, Kaldor's law, Dutch disease and the natural resources course. Using linear regression, we prove Kaldors' hypothesis on the relation between the growth of the manufacturing sector and the economy as such in the context of Mexico. Furthermore, trends consistent with Lewis' dual economy model are identified. The syndromes of Dutch disease in Mexico and its negative effects on non-mining sectors are described and analyzed.
