Pityriasis Rosea Aftermath THE WORLD OF POWER

And among the powers (religious, economic and political), Scherer will be located primarily in the areas of political power but this will always be mixed with other kinds of power. It is said that whoever has the economic power is political power. In Mexican society as this is true can only aspire to political power who have a solid economic base. But it is not as schematic, not only have money and have access to political power. To get the latter's major economic powers are conjured jhablando and looking for one of their own who have the skills to wield political power on their behalf. That is political.

In These Years, Series WithEditorial glance some of Mexico Ocean, Julio Scherer does just that: open a crack and peeks to show with his sober and delightful art out into the world of political power, the world of the President of the Republic, the world's most powerful politician Mexico has had in recent years, the world of Carlos Salinas de Gortari.

Other presidents receive some mention, as the case of Miguel de la Madrid Hurtado, who outlined their management in a terse sentence: mediocre job of Miguel De la Madrid (p.15). But even in that reference is being talked about underground power and cultivated as an assistant Salinas De La Madrid. And yes, the mediocrity of this was encouraged by him, as it isuse the siren song and draw all, if possible, to keep them under control. Scherer claimed, and we believe, far from the magic of the power given the proximity of the powerful.

The book ends as it ends the presidency of Salinas, with the outbreak of the Zapatista National Liberation Army, with the assassination of Ruiz Masieu, with the assassination of Luis Donaldo Colosio. A massive look at the world of political power in Mexico.
