A few weeks ago, derived from the death of Giovanni Sartori, some of the theoretical arguments of the Italian political scientist were used to show the diminished level of the social sciences in the country. The Mexican technocracy has insisted ad nauseam on the need to contain critical thinking and the uncompromising rhetoric of opponents and subaltern groups in Mexico who disagree with neoliberalism and its rampant corruption. This is not the first time critical thinking has been misused as a lost reason or heresy. Religious and economic fundamentalism constantly assaults dissenting ideas. This argument is also used to characterize public universities as crucibles of communists, guerrillas, homosexuals and drug addicts. Gabriel Zaid and the Intermarium Fascist have been systematically responsible for distorting the independent meaning of public institutions of higher education. Chairo seems to be the concept, created from the high spheres, for who questions the neoliberal dogma.

Sartori, in the last stages of his theoretical work, criticized the exaggerated quantitative form that political science had taken. The figures seemed to bias the understanding or obscure the information. Together, this made political science an elephant with feet of clay destined to die (César Cansino). Sartori's position on this debate is the attempt to bring science to a close, in general, from power. It is more valuable Giovanni Sartori that criticizes the castration that the methodology has done to political science as well as the damage that the TICS produce in the human. There is the technocratic imbecility that does not understand that it does not understand.

An element to reflect on Sartori and Political Science in Mexico comes to be the study of Andreas Schedler on the Mexican Postmodern War. Finally, the indicators that so much demand the technocrats have confirmed the scenario that both were responsible for censoring. Not only do the "Neo-liberal Naive Handbook" remain to answer the disqualification that has made of his administration Donald Trump, but, they insist on their economic fundamentalism to deny the situation of the country.

Mexico is in War, according to CIDE political scientist, who finally decided to get serious and abandon the Electoral Gutierritos (Leo Zuckermann) who confuse politics with juggling voter numbers. The review of the book, as well as the comments of some of the most important editorialists, leave no room for doubt. The serious thing is in the obsession of the political class to continue denying the situation. Just as members of organized crime do. The oligarchy of the country is the one who plays the most informative speculation. Entrepreneurs and politicians have been in charge of questioning the social sciences with critical or hermeneutical characteristics. They even claim that the possibility of radically questioning the Mexican regime is indicative of the country's democratic health.

That Mexico is in War has been said in various ways for quite some time. Narcorepública, Failed State, Government at the service of Evil, Republic Mafiosa, Sicilian State, Kiriarcado Caciquil, etc. Are the indicators of Andreas Schedler sufficient for the frivolity of our technocrats? Impossible to know in a country where the government only distinguishes its ability to plunder. Paradoxically, the claims of more technical social scientists are worth a cucumber for the mirreyes of the political class. Beyond being censured, social quantitativists must now assimilate the Godinez, Gutierritos Electorales, messalinas and recommended under which they have to perform their work. That is, for beginning, the INEGI case. Do measures still weigh more than criticism in such a scenario?

The Mexican War is one of the factors that explains the xenophobic policy of Donald Trump. This situation requires further analysis by national political science. If Mexico has the capacity to self-regulate; Perhaps, isolation is necessary. However, the civil conflict of our country can spread very soon to North America as considered it the prospectivist George Friedman. A difference in this respect, the war between Mexico and the United States is based on the crime cartels that are in both countries and are the real spearheads that advance territorially in the American Union. A conflict between the United States and the Mexican Cartels would be similar to the Civil War of 1863 where Mexica could emerge. Mexico has approximately 21 drug cartels to which the United States supplies weapons.

The Mexican Civil War can also be attractive to the enemies of the United States. In the first half of the twentieth century, the Austro-Hungarian Empire and Nazi Germany were not enough to take advantage of the bellicosity of the Mexican Revolution to the detriment of the United States; However, the geographical position is there. A country without political, economic, social and military intelligence is a vulnerable flank for the United States. The situation in Mexico may also be one of the ways in which the Norkorean government could defeat North America through an alliance with Mexican drug traffickers. Beyond the mass destruction of the Anglo-Saxon people, the use of drugs is also a form of efficient domination. Perhaps the Wall does not solve things, how many "Operation Shield", Israel-style, would have to develop North America to defend itself against such a neighborhood.

Andreas Schedler's study shows the need for Mexico to be intervened by UN-NATO, it is necessary in the face of a scenario like the one approaching in 2018. The inability manifested in government and institutions can lead the country to a situation Like that of ExYugoslavia. A Balkanized zone that generates an emigration and violence without precedent to the last bastion of the declining western culture.

There is much to be done in Mexican political science. The first thing is perhaps to impose a critical element on him, before the method - as the last Sartori could well think - turns it into a discipline of entertainment that is no longer even pleasing to power.
