  • Overview

    La historia de la izquierda en México es la historia de dos corrientes: la que proviene de la Revolución mexicana y la que ha buscado deslindarse de ella y de los gobiernos que de ella emanaron.

    En una de las naciones más desiguales del planeta, la lucha por abatir la injusticia ha moldeado su historia, sus instituciones, su carácter y, por ello, su esencia misma.

    Este libro relata la historia de aquellos que han entregado su vida para construir un México menos injusto.

    Pero también cuenta la historia de sus contradicciones y errores, de sus carencias y pugnas fratricidas, e incluso la de aquellos que la han traicionado, aprovechado, y que han fracturado al país en su empeño.

    Sin maniqueísmos, Jorge Castañeda y Joel Ortega nos cuentan una perspectiva nueva desde la que leer y entender el combate de tantos mexicanos por una vida menos vieja, menos injusta, más luminosa…

    «Por izquierda entendemos aquellas posiciones políticas e ideológicas —de personas, agrupaciones, partidos, sindicatos, universidades, publicaciones, gobiernos extranjeros— que se han empeñado a lo largo del último siglo y medio en México por cambiar el estado de cosas vigente hacia otro, menos desigual, más próspero, más nacionalista, más solidario, más democrático…» –De la Introducción

    ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

    The history of the left-wing party in Mexico is one of two opposing currents: one that comes from the Mexican Revolution and another that has sought to distance itself from it and from any government that emerged from it.
     
    In one of the nations with the most inequality on the planet, the struggle to overcome injustice has shaped its history, its institutions, its character, and, therefore, its very essence.
     
    This book tells the story of those who have dedicated their lives to building a Mexico with less injustice. But it also tells the story of their contradictions, mistakes, their shortcomings, and internal struggles, and even the stories of those who have betrayed it, taken advantage of it, and fractured the country while doing so.
     
    Without Manichaeism, Jorge Castañeda and Joel Ortega present a new perspective from which to read and understand the struggle of so many Mexicans for a newer, less unjust, brighter life...
     
    “By “left”, we mean those political and ideological positions—by individuals, groups, political parties, unions, universities, publications, foreign governments—that have, over the past century and a half in Mexico, committed themselves to changing the prevailing state of affairs towards a new, more equal, more prosperous, more nationalist, more solidarity-based, more democratic...” –From the Introduction"
