ENGLISH DESCRIPTION This is the contemporary history of our looted Mexico.
It all began in the 1980s, when the country was struggling with an unprecedented financial crisis and opted to embrace the neoliberal way as lifeline. A promise of modernity and prosperity that, by attempting to reduce government intervention in the economy, left a trail of trampled public interests. Ana Lilia P rez tells the story and unmasks the characters that shaped it: political leaders, complicit officials, heirs to the bureaucratic elite, and unscrupulous businessmen. At the same time, she pulls the reader into those pillaging schemes: engineered leases, diverted resources, fraudulent structural reforms, and privatizations that only benefited a few. In their quest for power, claims the author, politicians from different parties accused each other of "destroying" the country, dodging the responsibility left as legacy by the administrations that arose from within their ranks. Their selective memory has but one purpose: to keep or take back their privileges. With these intentions, they speak of a country that has never existed. This work exposes the modus operandi behind the looting of the most precious resources in the country and reveals how those people who should have watched over our common welfare became the architects of their own fortunes. Thus, this book emerges as a map, illuminating the winding road that led us to be children of neoliberalism. And even more, it allows us to understand the roots of the corrupted system and marks the first steps towards the daunting task of dismantling it.
