The role of the visual in politics is gaining momentum in scholarly work concerned with the current social media landscape. It is widely acknowledged that the production, dissemination and consumption of visual products in the Global South is powerfully shaped by geo-politics and a power dynamics in which the Global North dominates the South (the cultural imperialism argument).

El daño está hecho
A comienzos de 2023, en un foro sobre la concentración del poder público y el creciente autoritarismo que está experimentándose en México, el gran politólogo polaco Adam Przeworski hizo un diagnóstico contundente: por los graves riesgos a la convivencia política presente y futura, en México el daño ya está hecho. Extendiendo esa idea a otros ámbitos de la vida pública, en estas páginas se hace un balance, casi final, de la presente administración. A un lustro del triunfo electoral de López Obrador, una veintena de especialistas analizan los cambios de fondo y de forma que introdujo su régimen, evalúan las consecuencias de corto y mediano plazo, y proponen medidas para refor...
Mexikos junge Demokratie in der Krise
Katharina Wagner analysiert umfassend die demokratische Qualität Mexikos und deren Entwicklung im Zeitverlauf. Durch den Vergleich der Präsidentschaften von Fox, Calderón und Peña Nieto untersucht sie, wie sich die demokratische Qualität Mexikos seit der Transition zur Demokratie im Jahr 2000 verändert hat und in welchen Bereichen demokratische Defekte zu verorten sind. Ein besonderer Fokus liegt hierbei auf den Auswirkungen des Drogenkrieges und des Gewaltkontextes. Die Autorin setzt sowohl auf nationaler als auch auf subnationaler Ebene (Chiapas, Chihuahua und Michoacán) an und ermöglicht hierdurch eine umfassende und valide Profilzeichnung der Demokratie. Die Demokratiemessung erfolgt anhand einer auf den spezifischen Kontext Mexikos angepassten 15-Felder-Matrix der Demokratie.

El octavo informe Q ITESO: Análisis Crítico de Medios revisa el funcionamiento del sistema de comunicación política durante el proceso electoral de 2015, así como diversos aspectos relevantes de unas elecciones que culminaron con un cambio radical en el panorama político en Jalisco.

El examen político se enfoca en la campaña realizada por los candidatos independientes, el planteamiento socioeconómico de los contendientes por la capital del estado y el impacto electoral de un personaje incómodo como el papá del gobernador, para culminar este informe con una reflexión general y un balance de quiénes perdieron y quiénes ganaron al término de las elecciones de 2015.
