Produktbeschreibung
The increased trade and contact among nationals of
Canada, Mexico, and the United States since NAFTA
was enacted requires greater uniformity in the laws
of each country. Products liability legislation in
the three countries is no exception. While each
country s laws do address civil liability for
product defects, they approach this regulation in
different ways. Mexico s laws in this area lag far
behind those of the United States and Canada in
offering consumer protection. As a result, Canadian
and U.S. manufacturers and distributors face much
less of a risk of liability when they introduce
inferior products into the Mexican market than
Mexican manufacturers and distributors encounter in
the Canadian and U.S. markets. Mexico s producer-
friendly laws encourage manufacturers in all three
countries to produce poor-quality products for the
Mexican consumer. This Dissertation argues for the
improvement of Mexican products liability laws to
bring these laws more in line with those of the
other NAFTA countries.
