Summary

«El que controla el pasado controla el futuro, y el que controla el presente es quien controla el pasado.» -George Orwell, 1984

La historia no estudia el pasado, lo construye. Toda historia nacional es una mitología, y las mitologías sirven para estructurar la mente de un pueblo. La historia ha sido un arma, una herramienta política, un discurso psicológico, y eso es así porque siempre se ha escrito desde el poder para legitimarlo.

Hoy se habla de transformaciones en la historia de México: independencia, reforma y revolución. Todas implicaron guerra, polarización y odio; cada una de ellas generó división y sembró las semillas de los conflictos posteriores. Para transformar a México, hay que tener un cambio colectivo de mentalidad, y con el bien común como premisa indispensable para encontrar la paz
 
El mito de las tres transformaciones es un paseo a lo largo de la historia y la psicología de nosotros mismos para lograr una verdadera transformación y construir el mejor México posible.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

“Those who control the past control the future, and those who control the present control the past.” - George Orwell, 1984

History does not study the past, it builds it. Every national history is mythology, and mythologies serve to structure people’s minds. History has always been a weapon, a political tool, a psychological speech, and that is because it has always been written by those in power in order to legitimize it.

Today there is talk about transformation in Mexico’s history: independence, reform, and revolution. They all involved war, polarization, and hatred; each of them generated division and sowed the seeds of subsequent conflicts. But in order to transform Mexico, there must be a collective change of mindset, having the common good as an indispensable premise to achieving peace.

The Myth of the Three Transformations is a walk-through history and through our own way of thinking so that we can achieve a true transformation and build the best Mexico possible.
