description Despite its long-standing disrepute and the loss of executive power for the first time in 2000, the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) managed to maintain a prominent political position among the electorate, as evidenced by its continued representation in the federal Congress and state governments. Its presence in the states, control over its electoral machinery, and the cultivation of local leadership around Enrique Peña Nieto enabled the party to regain the presidency in 2012. The new administration received favorable evaluations, which allowed it to propose policy initiatives and persuade opposition actors–helping the PRI to reclaim political ground. However, corruption scandals involving the president, his close associates, and several governors, along with his inability to respond effectively to political crises–most notably the disappearance of the Ayotzinapa students–ultimately damaged not only the image of the president and his administration, but also that of the PRI, which has since experienced a steady decline in political standing. This article examines the relationship between Peña Nieto’s government and the party that brought him to power, under the premise that the executive’s actions, errors, and omissions have consequences for public perceptions of the party organization from which he emerged.

This article examines the relationship between Peña Nieto’s government and the party that brought him to power, under the premise that the executive’s actions, errors, and omissions have consequences for public perceptions of the party organization from which he emerged. A pesar de su desprestigio tradicional y de haber perdido el poder por primera vez en el año 2000, el Partido Revolucionario Institucional (PRI) logró mantener una posición política destacada entre el electorado, como lo demuestra su representación en el Congreso federal y los gobiernos estatales. Su presencia en los estados, el control de su maquinaria electoral y la construcción de un liderazgo local en la figura de Enrique Peña Nieto hicieron posible que recuperara la Presidencia en 2012. El nuevo gobierno recibió valoraciones positivas que le permitieron proponer programas y convencer a sus opositores, con lo que el PRI recuperó posiciones políticas. Sin embargo, los escándalos de corrupción que comprometieron al titular del Ejecutivo, a sus colaboradores y a varios gobernadores, así como su incapacidad para responder adecuadamente a los conflictos políticos –en especial, la desaparición de normalistas de Ayotzinapa–, terminaron por dañar no sólo la imagen del presidente y su gobierno, sino también la de su partido, que desde entonces ha perdido posiciones de manera sostenida. Este artículo explora la relación entre el gobierno de Peña Nieto y el partido que lo llevó al poder, bajo la premisa de que las acciones, errores y omisiones del Ejecutivo tienen consecuencias en las valoraciones sobre la organización partidaria de la que proviene.
