La historia de México es una mentira, una narrativa diseñada para derrotar psicológicamente al pueblo. A lo largo de los últimos cien años se nos ha contado una historia de nosotros mismos donde somos hijos de la derrota. La filiación con el vencido ha forjado una identidad de miseria y de victimismo que ha anulado la posibilidad de comprender realmente lo que somos. La mentira oficial nos ha arrebatado el pasado, el presente y el futuro. Fiel a su estilo, Juan Miguel Zunzunegui nos confronta con la historia oficial mexicana y propone una polémica reinterpretación. A lo largo del libro, el autor pone en duda los relatos más arraigados de la identidad nacional, como la conquista, el virreinato, la independencia, la reforma y la revolución, que no son una crónica de la verdad, sino un diseño deliberado del fracaso. Otra historia de México es una invitación a recuperar nuestra historia con miras a replantear la identidad nacional y empezar a ejercer la grandeza a la que estamos llamados. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Mexico's history is a lie--a narrative designed to psychologically defeat its people.
For the past hundred years, we have been told a story about ourselves in which we are the children of defeat. Identifying with the vanquished has forged an identity rooted in hardship and victimhood, preventing us from truly understanding who we are. The official narrative has robbed us of our past, our present, and our future. True to his distinctive style, Juan Miguel Zunzunegui challenges Mexico's official history and offers a provocative reinterpretation. Throughout the book, the author questions some of the most deeply entrenched narratives of Mexican national identity, including the Conquest, the Viceroyalty, Independence, the Reform, and the Revolution. Rather than a truthful account of the past, he argues, these narratives amount to a deliberate blueprint for failure. Another History of Mexico is an invitation to reclaim our history, rethink our national identity, and begin to embrace the greatness we are called to achieve.
