Es que los espa�oles nos conquistaron, trajeron toda la maldad y por eso somos pobres... Es que la Malinche... Es que los gringos nos robaron el territorio del norte y por eso no somos una potencia... Es que Porfirio D�az fue un terrible dictador... Es que todos los ricos son malos y todos los pobres son buenos, y somos pobres pero honrados... Es que lo importante no es ganar sino competir..., por eso perdemos... Vamos a mandar a M�xico a unas cuantas sesiones de psicoterapia. Lo acostaremos en el div�n y lo enfrentaremos contra s� mismo, para ver si la l�gica y la raz�n logran imponerse contra los dogmas hist�ricos rid�culos que lo atan al pasado. El mexicano es poco colaborador, personalista, ego�sta, y no tiene en absoluto el esp�ritu de participaci�n de otros pueblos. El mexicano vive el hoy volteando al ayer, lo que en definitiva no lo hace nada visionario. Nunca llegar� al futuro un pueblo tan obsesionado con su pasado... peor a�n, con un pasado m�tico. Nuestra historia, como la de todos los pa�ses, est� llena de mitos y mentiras. Ser� labor de este libro tratar de brindar versiones alternativas de la historia que nos ayuden a comprender nuestro car�cter, nuestros ideales y nuestros complejos de hoy. Y es desde luego el sue�o que este libro ayude a producir en el mexicano el cambio que tanto necesitamos para progresar como pa�s, como personas y como sociedad. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Because the Spanish conquered us and brought wickedness with them, and that is why we are poor... Because Malinche... Because the gringos stole the northern territories and we are no longer a global superpower... Because Porfirio D�az was an awful dictator... Because all rich people are bad, and the poor are good, and we are poor, but honest... Because what matters is not to win, but to compete... that is why we lose... We are sending Mexico to a few psychotherapy sessions. We will get it on the couch and make it confront itself to see if logic and reason manage to prevail against ridiculous historical dogmatisms that keep it tied to the past. Mexicans do not cooperate much, they are personalistic and selfish; they do not share the collective spirit other peoples have. Mexicans live today with their eyes on yesterday, which in the end does not make them visionaries at all. A nation so heavily obsessed with the past, and worse, with a mythical past, will never make it into the future. Our story, same as it is in all other countries, is full of myth and lies. It will be this book's mission to give alternative versions of history to help us understand our character, our ideals, and our current complexes.
