Abstract
GARRIDO, Juan Ignacio. 1910 and Latin America: Amauta, Mariátegui and Tthe Mexican Revolution. Estud. filos. práct. hist. ideas [online]. 2015, vol.17, n.1, pp.45-57. ISSN 1851-9490.
We try to carry out an essay referred to the intervention Amauta magazine brought, with Mariátegui as director, to the Marxist tradition. It induced to rethink the “collective political action” and the various figures that may acquire in its liberation process, in particular from the debate of the “Mexican Revolution”. We analyze it based on two items: the historical forms of power and the political hegemony. Regarding the former, we show the arguments of the Mexican revolution importance as founding myth for Latin America, creating a period of radical transformation after a longone of domination. On the other hand, the Mexican Revolution, requires an interpretation of the second item: political hegemony. Because the historical difficulties crossing the revolutionary processes, where it plays its consolidation as a new hegemonic order, are a chapter often skipped by Marxism.
