Los futuros de México: encrucijada y clavos en el zapato

the essay argues that, up to now, mexico still lacks to imagine its long term futures; it states that it is urgent to make a collective, systematic and rigorous effort to do so. anticipating such an effort, the essay outlines in an overall view, a critical perspective of what has happened in the last twenty years-since the birth of polis and up to our days-in several spheres of the national life: demography, economics, politics and society. in each case it also sketches possible futures over the next two decades, or issues that would be important to consider in imagining such futures.
