Mexico's 2024 Elections and the Path to Citizen Democracy
Democracy's having a bad hair day. 🤔 Mexico's election could be a turning point (and maybe get a woman in charge!). Experts spill the beans.
Let's face it, when's the last time democracy wasn't in 'crisis'? It's the political world's favorite buzzword, like a perpetually malfunctioning smoke alarm that nobody seems willing to actually fix. Mexico's no exception, and with 2024's elections on the horizon, the country's holding its collective breath – it's the democratic equivalent of that pivotal moment in a tango where you just know somebody's about to pull out a dramatic dip.
Miguel Armando López Leyva, the UNAM Humanities coordinator, puts it rather poetically: “Until a few years ago the issue of democracy seemed overcome; However, it seems to always be in crisis.” There's truth there; democracy can feel like that friend that always has messy relationship drama, doesn't it?
