«El que controla el pasado controla el futuro, y el que controla el presente es quien controla el pasado. -George Orwell, 1984
La historia no estudia el pasado, lo construye. Toda historia nacional es una mitolog?a, y las mitolog?as sirven para estructurar la mente de un pueblo. La historia ha sido un arma, una herramienta pol?tica, un discurso psicol?gico, y eso es as? porque siempre se ha escrito desde el poder para legitimarlo.
History does not study the past, it builds it. Every national history is mythology, and mythologies serve to structure people's minds. History has always been a weapon, a political tool, a psychological speech, and that is because it has always been written by those in power in order to legitimize it. Today there is talk about transformation in Mexico's history: independence, reform, and revolution. They all involved war, polarization, and hatred; each of them generated division and sowed the seeds of subsequent conflicts. But in order to transform Mexico, there must be a collective change of mindset, having the common good as an indispensable premise to achieving peace. The Myth of the Three Transformations is a walk-through history and through our own way of thinking so that we can achieve a true transformation and build the best Mexico possible.
