Felipe de AlbaAbstractThe aim of this paper is to propose six hypotheses for an interdisciplinary discussion regarding the metropolis de Mexico. Particularly on its linkages with the socioinstitutional conflict as well as with the political regulation and the enduring urban services crisis. We argue within this state of the things, the metropolis has achieved a major roll in the recent Mexican politic regime evolution. This made of the metropolis a privileged space to seek for new agreements and regulations, as well as for the socials actors imaginative analysis. We conclude metropolis is a new space in disagreement because of its actual relevance in the national political agenda and of the major roll it will accomplish, particularly in the 2006 presidential elections. But mainly, because the Mexico’s metropolis is a questioned political space under different pressions and because its positioning as a new political actor who will establish some of the main rules of the Mexican regime configuration within the next years.
