Desde los años ochenta del siglo pasado la élite tecnocrática ha operado la economía mexicana sin importar si gobierna el país el Partido Revolucionario Institucional o algún partido de oposición. Además de no manifestar ningún compromiso ideológico o partidario, la élite ha mantenido un estricto control de las finanzas públicas nacionales generando importantes consecuencias políticas y electorales en el país. Al margen de si existen o no otras opciones económicas, el principal problema ha sido que esa élite no ha sido capaz de captar el apoyo de la sociedad.

El presente ensayo se propone mostrar las características de la tecnocracia mexicana, su desarrollo y sobrevivencia durante la transición así como las fallas de intermediación que han impedido la comunicación entre la sociedad y las autoridades gubernamentales en el diseño y aplicación de las medidas económicas.... view less

On top of showing an uncommitted stance in ideological or party terms, the elite has maintained a strict control of national public finances thus generating considerable political and electoral consequences in the country. Regardless of whether there exist or not different economic options, the main problem lies in that this elite has been unable to gain the society's support. The rationality that characterizes this elite does not admit communication with society nor does it take into consideration its opinion concerning the decisions they take. This has led to an extreme politicization of economic decisions of political parties. This article intends to expose the features of the Mexican technocracy, its development and survival during the transition, as well as the mediation flaws that have impeded communication between the society and governmental authorities concerning the development and implementation of economic measures.... view less
