ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A country's x-ray. In this first volume of Mexican Tragicomedy, which spans from 1940 to 1970, we find major political episodes, the cover-ups known as tapadismo and electoral fraud schemes, the unwritten laws of the system, working-class and agrarian labyrinths, the strengthening of businessmen, industrialization, a stabilizing development, the United States' gradual and relentless indentation in almost every aspect of the country, the everlasting scarcity, people's protests and their corresponding repressions, movie stars, shows and sports, the emergence and overwhelming predominance of television, big celebrities, social life, mambo, cha-cha, rock 'n' roll, rebels without a cause, miniskirts, hippies, cultural mafias, intellectual life, student activism, and the end of the dream known as the Mexican miracle.
