 Invasion Through Cooperation Diego Martín Velázquez Caballero It is becoming increasingly undeniable that U.S. interventionism in Mexico is affecting the interests of narco-politics and its various allies. Although the Fourth Transformation seeks to make clear demonstrations of nationalism and sovereignty, the truth is that Donald Trump's pressure is growing stronger, and progressivism may be facing its last six-year term. Analyses of the links between politics and drug trafficking will begin to uncover more evidence; however, the Mexican government is at the beck and call of U.S. imperialism, and therefore, the arrests and public displays of drug traffickers and their associates are becoming increasingly commonplace. Ricardo Pascoe, Andres Oppenheimer, and Carlos Ramírez explain that there is a deep collaboration that makes military intervention unnecessary. The socialist posturing of the Sheinbaum government simply demonstrates its impotence in the face of neoliberal populism an...

Spanglish Day Diego Martín Velázquez Caballero October 12th, a date historically laden with narratives, contrasts, and even clashes between Hispanist and Indigenous perspectives in Latin America, seems to require a new perspective today. Instead of perpetuating the polarization between these dimensions, perhaps it is time to observe a phenomenon that is profoundly transforming cultural and social dynamics: the experience of Mexicans in the United States. North America is currently one of the main centers of Latino concentration outside of Latin American territories. However, little attention is paid to the sociocultural and demographic impacts that the Mexican presence is generating in the United States. Authors such as Samuel Huntington and George Friedman, from a markedly Anglo-Saxon conservative standpoint, have analyzed the impact of the Mexican presence on the American cultural landscape. Although their approaches tend to be alarmist and tinged with racism, they conceal a reality ...

Donald Trump: Finally? Diego Martín Velázquez Caballero Before President Claudia Sheinbaum's report on her first year in office, the President of the United States announced a full-scale declaration of war against drug cartels in Latin America. This decision raised serious questions in Mexico, since the organized crime groups involved in the production and trafficking of narcotics have been designated as terrorists by the White House. This designation raises the possibility of a U.S. military intervention, as has already been seen recently with alleged actions against drug traffickers on the Venezuelan coast. However, the impact of Trump's message was relegated on the Mexican public agenda. The central themes of Sheinbaum's event, such as the assessment of her first year in office, the marked distancing from her political predecessor, and the introduction of new policies and projects for the short term, garnered more attention than the threats emanating from the north. It i...

 Western Crime Diego Martín Velázquez Caballero The central hypothesis proposed by Viviane Forrester holds that antisemitism in the West is a historical constant that tends to intensify. Europe bears the primary responsibility for creating the Arab-Israeli conflict and remains indifferent to the fate of Jewish culture. This rejection and hatred of Jews seems to perpetuate itself, even allowing for extreme situations after the Holocaust. The annihilation of Jewish communities in Eastern Europe is an episode that the Western world avoids addressing directly. During World War II, this rejection took on global dimensions, culminating in the non-admission of Jewish emigrants and their fate in the extermination camps. The concept of the Intermarium has profound implications for global geopolitics. However, European Jews did not seek conflict over the so-called Holy Land; many would have preferred to remain in European nations, but they still faced relentless rejection, being expelled and...
