| Sumario: | This article´s focus is the candidacy of Andrés Manuel López Obrador as a guiding thread to understand the emergence of a potent left electoral option in Mexico in the past election. He is operating with significant disadvantages in terms of resources, and so if Mexico were a well-developed formal democracy much of what López Obrador has attempted in electoral strategies and media tactics would be regarded as innovative.But Mexico is still very early in the process of a transition, his approaches take on the character of institutional challenges. The study is drawn from surveys, qualitative studies and interviews with participants in the process. |
