权威的概念：墨西哥和中国的政治文化比较

摘要

The intention of this work is to give a clear perspective of how two cultures than at first sight may seem opposite the one to the other in relation to how they perceive the figure of authority and their relationship with it,may be more closely related than a first perception think.
　　The importance of this work is that it will bring together two cultures that the author thinks are not that different,coming to a new understanding on the both of them.On one hand,the Chinese culture that since millennia has had a defined social structure and has changed in few aspects,it seems that almost is barely moldable;but there is definitely a change since the reform of openness in1980.And on the other hand,Mexico,which is a country with different backgrounds,still trying to define itself;but with a clear idea of what the authority figure stands for and their relationship with it.
　　The main proposal of this work is to gather information,analyze it to answer the question of how two distant cultures(both in distance and cultural background)can be similar as the author of this thesis sees it.
　　China and Mexico shares a unique political system that is based on one figure of authority which dictates policies,and although one president does not stay in power for over a10or6years term,one thing continues throughout each term that is the Political Party.In China,they only have the Chinese Communist Party(CCP),the lack of other parties that participates in the search for power and deliberation of Public Policies makes it easier for China to come to agreements.In Mexico there are several actors,or Political Parties,that participate in a democratic contest to rule,in reality there has been only one Political Party that has ruled for over more than80years,some of them with more resistance than others,but still with a vast majority of public representatives which makes it similar with the Chinese system.
　　Furthermore,the most important figure in the political scene in both countries is one person:the President.Both countries share a
