La educación es un bien meritorio o preferente y, al mismo tiempo, un bien meritocrático. La tarea de cualquier sistema educativo es conducir la transición entre estas dos dimensiones. Cuando la sociedad es muy heterogénea, esta tarea suele fallar. Este trabajo tiene como objetivo probar los fallos en esta transición, para lo cual se examina el caso de México, cuyo sistema político ha exhibido la necesidad de mantener el equilibrio entre actores modernos, premodernos y posmodernos, a fin de sortear con éxito el dilema entre gobernabilidad y democracia.

The solution has been the permanent divorce between formal and informal institutions. The main conclusion is that this divorce has encouraged the shutting down of any modern attempt to encourage knowledge through education, because it allows the use of informal mechanisms that enjoy a high degree of legitimacy, due to the pre- and post-modern components of the social equilibrium.... view less
