Esta es la historia contemporánea de nuestro México saqueado.

Todo comenzó en los años ochenta, cuando el país se debatía en una crisis económica sin precedentes y optó por abrazar el modelo neoliberal como tabla de salvación. Una promesa de modernidad y prosperidad que, al intentar reducir la intervención estatal en la economía, dejó un rastro de intereses públicos pisoteados.

Ana Lilia Pérez cuenta esta historia y desenmascara a los personajes que la moldearon: líderes políticos, funcionarios cómplices, herederos de la élite burocrática y empresarios sin escrúpulos. Al mismo tiempo, adentra al lector en las artimañas del saqueo: concesiones manipuladas, recursos desviados, reformas estructurales fraudulentas y privatizaciones que no beneficiaron sino a una minoría.

En su pugna por el poder, dice la autora, los políticos de distintos partidos se acusan mutuamente de la «destrucción del país, evadiendo así las responsabilidades que los gobiernos emanados de sus filas dejaron como legado. Su memoria selectiva tiene un único propósito: mantener o recuperar sus privilegios. Con esta intención, hablan de un país que nunca existió.

Esta obra expone el modus operandi detrás del despojo de los recursos más preciados del país y revela cómo aquellos que debían haber velado por el bienestar común se transformaron en arquitectos de su propia fortuna. Así, se erige como un mapa que ilumina el tortuoso camino que nos condujo a convertimos en hijos del neoliberalismo. Más allá, nos permite entender las raíces de la corrupción sistémica y marca los primeros pasos en la ardua tarea para desmantelarla.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

This is the contemporary history of our looted Mexico.

It all began in the 1980s, when the country was struggling with an unprecedented financial crisis and opted to embrace the neoliberal way as lifeline. A promise of modernity and prosperity that, by attempting to reduce government intervention in the economy, left a trail of trampled public interests.

Ana Lilia Pérez tells the story and unmasks the characters that shaped it: political leaders, complicit officials, heirs to the bureaucratic elite, and unscrupulous businessmen. At the same time, she pulls the reader into those pillaging schemes: engineered leases, diverted resources, fraudulent structural reforms, and privatizations that only benefited a few.

In their quest for power, claims the author, politicians from different parties accused each other of "destroying" the country, dodging the responsibility left as legacy by the administrations that arose from within their ranks. Their selective memory has but one purpose: to keep or take back their privileges. With these intentions, they speak of a country that has never existed.

This work exposes the modus operandi behind the looting of the most precious resources in the country and reveals how those people who should have watched over our common welfare became the architects of their own fortunes. Thus, this book emerges as a map, illuminating the winding road that led us to be children of neoliberalism. And even more, it allows us to understand the roots of the corrupted system and marks the first steps towards the daunting task of dismantling it.
