About this listen
Una lectura obligada para ciudadanos críticos y propositivos.
Este es un libro lleno de rabia y amor perro por el México maltrecho que debemos rescatar. Es una crónica del hartazgo, del enojo con la cleptocracia que se rota en el poder, con los privilegios inmerecidos de los cómodamente apoltronados en la punta de la pirámide. Un país atorado en la desesperanza, en el desamparo, sofocado por la corrupción, amenazado por la violencia, sin soluciones fáciles.
Con el implacable rigor que la distingue, Denise Dresser hace un corte de caja de los últimos tiempos, los años del desencanto. La Peñastroika perdida, la cuatitud corrosiva, la vetocracia viva, el pacto de impunidad y cómo transitamos de la dictadura perfecta al pillaje perfecto. Por sus páginas desfilan las prácticas y las historias que han trastocado la transición democrática; sus líneas repasan los síntomas semanales de la descomposición como la "Casa Blanca", el escándalo de Odebrecht, la llamada "Estafa Maestra", los fiscales carnales, las instituciones disfuncionales y la partidocracia rapaz. Frontal y reveladora, la autora narra cómo nos convertimos en un país de fosas, de desaparecidos, de ausentes. Refuta las "verdades históricas" de Ayotzinapa y Tanhuato y Apatzingán, y contabiliza los costos de pelear la misma guerra contra el narcotráfico, pero con peores resultados. Ante este deterioro, apunta las batallas que faltan por ganar: por las mujeres, por los derechos pisoteados, por los periodistas, por la libertad de expresión, por la paz.
Manifiesto mexicano es un llamado a ser sujetos desobedientes, a disentir y construir, a "bullear" a quienes gobiernan para que lo hagan mejor. Es una apuesta a la remodelación institucional, a la rendición de cuentas, a los contrapesos, a la democracia, gobierne quien gobierne. Es una convocatoria para componer lo que echamos a perder, y alcanzar lo que quedó como una simple aspiración: un sistema político y económico que funcione para los ciudadanos y no sólo para la clase política. Algo verdaderamente ciudadano. Algo nuestro.

The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu. In spite of its battlefield specificity, The Art of War has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as world politics, human psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words.

Story
The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Why have history's greatest minds - from George Washington to Frederick the Great to Ralph Waldo Emerson along with today's top performers, from Super Bowl-winning football coaches to CEOs and celebrities - embraced the wisdom of the ancient Stoics? Because they realize that the most valuable wisdom is timeless and that philosophy is for living a better life, not a classroom exercise. The Daily Stoic offers a daily devotional of Stoic insights and exercises, featuring all-new translations.

Over the next five years, millions of more Americans are expected to take Ozempic and other GLP-1 weight-loss drugs, which are rapidly being recognized as the miracle drugs of this century.

In this show, you’ll meet people across America who are either taking the jab or thinking about it, and the shocking intentional and unintentional results they are seeing.

Una obra de activismo literario mexicano
Un recuento elocuente de los últimos seis años, lleno de citas, ejemplos, experiencias políticas íntimas, de frustración, de rabia y sobre todo, de amor por México. Me quedo con un fragmento de su emotivo epílogo:
"Muévete. Tienes que ser el hobbit que movilice a los magos y a los elfos...recuerda aquello que cargas adentro para hacer cosas extraordinarias, milagros incluso. Eres mexicano"

Muy buen análisis, lenguaje y narración innecesariamente rebuscada
El libro podría ser escrito con 50% menos palabras sin perder un solo gramo de contenido.

how corruption destroys democracies
Denise is a phenomenal writer and journalist. at times poetic and with brutal honesty, she elucidates the rampant corruption and violence that plagues Mexico. Her solutions and assessments are spot on and salient for our world. her descriptions of feminism and internalized shame are fascinating. a must read

imperdible de Denisse
Excelente libro de Denisse, lástima que ella no lee el libro completo, al escucharla en el prefacio te quedas con ganas de seguirla escuchando y no es que la lectora sea mala, de hecho es muy buena, simplemente es que te quedas con más ganas de Denisse.

Excelente trabajo periodista.
Soportado por un gran cantidad de datos, nombres, fechas, que dejan ver la preocupante situación de nuestro México. Valiente escritora, exhibe de forma precisa y ecuánime la política en México.

Un documento revelador, profético y esperanzador
Denise indigna por el contenido pero alimenta por el enfoque. Después de más de diez años de exilio (voluntario) he asistido, a través del Manifiesto Mexicano, al retrato de mi país durante los años del panismo y del priismo de Peña Nieto, así como a las profecías del López Obradorismo. Notable el diagnóstico en un caso y la previsión en el otro.
Aunque a veces la crudeza de la realidad descrita me llevaba a interrumpir la narración, las conclusiones y el epílogo me conmovieron profundamente. ¡Gracias, Denise, por tu valor y tu determinación!
