Hugo Hiriart, "La revuelta antiautoritaria," in Nexos 121 (January 1988). p. 6. He traced to 1968 many of the progressive changes he saw taking place in Mexico, from the end of official censorship of films to the legalization of divorce, a liberalized dress code, the environmental movement, and a skeptical attitude toward power. For an example of his evocative journalistic abilities, see his early place in Excélsior, "Granaderos. Estudiantes" (July 25, 1968), 3.

México, 1968: Los orígenes de la transición
-
1 July-September
-
A succinct introduction to this elite view of the movement and its historical effects twenty years after the events, can be found in Pensar el 68, an entire issue of Nexos (no. 121, January 1988). The issue was organized and edited by Hugo Hiriart and Hermann Bellinghausen and subsequently published as a book with the same title, also in 1988. This work revolves around the recollections of two centrist leaders of the student movement. Gilberto Guevera Niebla and Raúl Alvárez Garín. It provides an excellent account of the highly politicized academic worlds of the militants before 1968 as well as their interpretation of the events and of their memories of it, often offering a somewhat more nuanced view of the conflict between the students and the state than had been previously available. Significantly, the editors chose not to center the issue around the recollections of the more intransigent wing of the militants. Pensar el 68 also traces the lives of some prominent militant leaders during the past twenty years, pointing to their various accomplishments and the changes they feel have taken place in the nation. Under the direction of Héctor Aguilar Camín. Nexos became in the 1980s a voice of the Generation of 1968. A more realistic appraisal of the long-term impact of the student movement on Mexican politics is offered by Soledad Loaeza, "México, 1968: los orígenes de la transición,""" Fora lnterncional, 30:1 (117) (July-September, 1989), 66-92. Loaeza traces a transition from a corporatist to a pluralist state but is careful to note that politics remains a family affair among small elites. A new middle class, she states, came into power as a result of the protests of 1968.

4 A recent interpretation claims that "the massacre at Tlatelolco . . . profoundly affected subsequent Mexican developments. Writers and intellectuals openly and vociferously criticized the president and the political system. Although previously the intellectuals supported the PRI and its leaders, many now took a more independent, critical stance. The massacre also encouraged the growth of opposition from both the left and the right. . . . The massacre also encouraged the opening of the political process. Criticism was more readily tolerated. Effective suffrage and increased participation of opposition in the political system became more accepted . . . The emphasis was on modernization" ( Jaime Suchlicki, Mexico: From Montezuma to Nafta, Chiapas and Beyond [Washington, 1996]. 141-2). The traditional argument concerning the impact of 1968 on the thinking of intellectual elite, which was given more to highlighting conflict and separations, claims that the events of 1968 have led to a thorough and often agonizing re-evaluation of Mexican history and of the Revolution in particular and to a consequent distancing between the intellectual elite and the state. See. for example. Carlos Pereyra et al., Historia ¿para qué? (Mexico, 1980); Thomas Benjamin. "The Leviathan on the Zócalo: Recent Historiography on the Postrevolutionary Mexican State." Latin American Research Review, 20:8 3 (1985), 195-217, especially 197-8; and the new introduction to the second edition of Stanley R. Ross, Is the Mexican Revolution Dead? (Philadelphia, 1975), xi-xxxviii. For the deep impact which the student movement and Tlatelolco had on the literary production of the intellectual elites, see Martin S. Stabb. "The New Essay in Mexico: Text and Context." Hispania, 70:1 (March 1987), 47-61; Dolly J. Young, "Mexican Literary Reactions to Tlatelolco 1968," Latin American Research Review, 20:2 (1985), 71-85; Mempo Giardinelli, "Reflexiones sobre la literatura de la onda," in El Buho, supplement of Excélsior (July 6, 1986); Luis Leal, "Tlatelolco, Tlatelolco," Denver Quarterly. 14:1 (1979). 3-13: and Kathy Taylor, The New Narrative of Mexico: Sub-versions of History in Mexican Fiction (Lewisburg, 1994). Two recent testimonials by participant leaders of the movement begin to shed new light on the behavior or the leaders of the movement, and are an important ingredient in the ideas contained in this article. See Luis Gonzaláz de Alba, "1968: La fiesta y la tragedia." in Nexos, 189 (September 1993), 23-31, and Paco Ignacio Taibo II, 68 (1991).

4 A recent interpretation claims that "the massacre at Tlatelolco . . . profoundly affected subsequent Mexican developments. Writers and intellectuals openly and vociferously criticized the president and the political system. Although previously the intellectuals supported the PRI and its leaders, many now took a more independent, critical stance. The massacre also encouraged the growth of opposition from both the left and the right. . . . The massacre also encouraged the opening of the political process. Criticism was more readily tolerated. Effective suffrage and increased participation of opposition in the political system became more accepted . . . The emphasis was on modernization" ( Jaime Suchlicki, Mexico: From Montezuma to Nafta, Chiapas and Beyond [Washington, 1996]. 141-2). The traditional argument concerning the impact of 1968 on the thinking of intellectual elite, which was given more to highlighting conflict and separations, claims that the events of 1968 have led to a thorough and often agonizing re-evaluation of Mexican history and of the Revolution in particular and to a consequent distancing between the intellectual elite and the state. See. for example. Carlos Pereyra et al., Historia ¿para qué? (Mexico, 1980); Thomas Benjamin. "The Leviathan on the Zócalo: Recent Historiography on the Postrevolutionary Mexican State." Latin American Research Review, 20:8 3 (1985), 195-217, especially 197-8; and the new introduction to the second edition of Stanley R. Ross, Is the Mexican Revolution Dead?

Although this civil society has been seen to be developing through the years, it was perceived most prominently in the social solidarity of Mexicans of all walks of life in the wake of the devastating 1985 earthquake. One of the first expressions of this connection can be found in Maria Luisa Puga, "Pontiatowska y Monsiváis (Dos cronistas) La memoria viva: Del 68 al terremoto," in La Plaza: Crónicas de la Vida Cultural de Coyoacán, 1:10 (June 1986), 11-13.

President Ernesto Zedillo recently traced to the student movement the democratizing results of the mid-term elections, in which his Revolutionary Institutional Party (PRI) lost control of Congress for the first time in seventy years. "We were the youth who took the first fundamental step to claim the democracy that a nation like Mexico needs and deserves" (Excelsior, July 8, 1997).

This notion of a break in the history of Mexico is stated throughout the testimonial literature, perhaps most clearly in Elena Poniatowska, Fuerte es el silencio (Mexico. 1971), 51: "At that moment [October 2] the lives of many Mexicans became divided in two: before and after Tlatelolco." Poniatowska was a young journalist during 1968 and is the author of the classic work on the protest movement. La noche de Tlatelolco (Mexico. 1972), which has been translated into English as Massacre in Mexico (New York, 1975). According to Octavio Paz, an "era in the history of Mexico came to an end2E" (Posdata [Mexico. 1970], 38). He took the unprecedented act of resigning as ambassador to India in protest against the violent actions of his government; for Carlos Fuentes the end of the movement is comparable to "Independence, Reforma. Revolution," the three great stages in the nation's history (Tiempo mexicano [Mexico. 1971], 147).

Douglas Cope, The Limits of Racial Domination: Plebeian Society in Colonial Mexico City, 1660-1720 (Madison, 1994). 42-48. 125-60. Octavio Paz offers intriguing connections and contrasts between the 1692 protests and those of 1968 in "A cinco años de Tlatelolco," El ogro filantrópico (Mexico, 1979), 146-52. See William B.

Stern's work on Peru. Peru's Indian Peoples and the Challenge of Spanish Conquest: Huamanga to 1640 (Madison, 1982), is perhaps the most nuanced and systematic study of the various means by which subject peoples came before their authorities to petition for the restitution of rights and privileges which they understood were theirs in a colonial system whose ultimate legitimacy they questioned but rarely.

A propósito de diálogos
-
August 26
-
Just before and during the student protests, many came to think again about what diálogo público was all about. According to Adolfo Christlieb Ibarrola, for example, the long-time leader of the opposition Partido de Acción Nacional (PAN). "Diálogo is not Machiavellianism, complacency, transaction, the loss of principles, nor even the offering of vital testimony about what one thinks or says; diálogo is not the expression of weakness. Nor does it imply the acceptance of ambiguous compromises, or the obligation to come to a synthesis, because diálogo is not an end, but a means, one which does not end in the truth in itself, because it only searches for it" ("Informe rendido por el Licenciado Adolfo Christlieb Ibarrola," Presidente del PAN al Consejo Nacional del Partido en sesión celebrada el 16 de marzo de 1968). In an obvious effort to demonstrate that the students could not become engaged in a diálogo público with the president, essayist Adán J. Moctezuma stated that diálogo was neither a discussion or a debate. "One dialogues in a serene state of mind; one dialogues among equals. A diálogo takes place between two friends, or two brothers. . . Diálogo presumes [that] two individuals . . . respect one another, . . . do not fear or hate one another . . . because diálogo is the voice of convivencia . . . which is superior to coexistence" ("A propósito de diálogos," El Nacional [August 26, 1968]).

In an effort to understand how some traditions remain in modern societies long after their time would appear to be up, some scholars have looked for those that are strategically, or at least somewhat consciously conceived by elites or counter-elites in order to use them politically by making contemporary connections with the past. Behind these traditions there are overt choices, decisions, insertions, and indeed, inventions. Much of this literature has a hard time moving beyond a functional view of these traditions. See Eric Hobsawm and Terrence Ranger, eds., The Invention of Tradition (Cambridge, 1983). These inventions no doubt exist. But what I am after here is tradition in a deeper sense, the type that emerges suddenly and with little thought or strategy. While very much historically conditioned, the behavior of the students in Mexico in 1968 can be seen as spontaneous.

For initial efforts to move beyond the dichotomy between hegemony and resistance, between the state and society in the current literature on Mexico, see Gilbert M. Joseph and Daniel Nugent, eds., Everyday Forms of State Formation: Revolution and the Negotiation of Rule in Modern Mexico (Durham, 1994). Especially helpful is William Roseberry's "Hegemony and the Language of Contention," 355-66, in which he directs us to ways in which subordinate groups and the state can be studied in relationship to each other. Perhaps the most successful effort to move beyond this dichotomized view of power and resistance in the literature on modern Latin America is Daniel James, Resistance and Integration: Peronism and the Argentine Working Class, 1946-1976 (Cambridge, U.K., 1988).

For an earlier analysis of how a social order was broken more from above than below within the context of a violent riot, see Herbert Braun, The Assassination of Gaitán: Public Life and Urban Violence in Colombia (Madison, 1985). For some broadly suggestive thoughts on the meaning of the April 9, 1948. in Bogotá and the October 2, 1968, massacre in Mexico City in the history of Colombia and Mexico, see Herbert Braun, "El 9 de abril en Colombia y el 2 de octubre en México: Meditaciones metahistóricas a partir de dos momentos coyunturales, Revista de la Universidad Nacional (Bogotá), no. 17-18 (May-August 1988), 47-51. My understanding of the behavior of the Mexican students owes much to the broadly conceptual views of Barrington Moore. Jr., Injustice: The Social Bases of Obedience and Revolt (White Plains, 1978). and especially to his focus on moral outrage, reciprocity, and mutual obligations in social conflict.

For some broadly suggestive thoughts on the meaning of the April 9, 1948. in Bogotá and the October 2, 1968, massacre in Mexico City in the history of Colombia and Mexico, see Herbert Braun, "El 9 de abril en Colombia y el 2 de octubre en México: Meditaciones metahistóricas a partir de dos momentos coyunturales, Revista de la Universidad Nacional (Bogotá), no. 17-18 (May-August 1988), 47-51. My understanding of the behavior of the Mexican students owes much to the broadly conceptual views of Barrington Moore. Jr., Injustice: The Social Bases of Obedience and Revolt (White Plains, 1978). and especially to his focus on moral outrage, reciprocity, and mutual obligations in social conflict.

Nor is it my intention to argue that these traditions are a form of an essential transhistorical "Mexicanism" or that the paternalism which the students felt is an expression of their deep sense of cultural inferiority. For these pervasive themes in Mexican thought, see Octavio Paz, The Labyrintha of Solitude : Life and Thought in Mexico (New York. 1961); Samuel Ramos, Profile of Man and Culture in Mexico (Austin, 1962), and the scholarly work by Henry C. Schmidt, The Roots of Lo Mexicano: Self and Society in Mexican Thought, 1900-1934 (College Station, TX, 1978 ). Octavio Paz explains the paternalist veneration of the President in Mexico prior to 1968 as a legacy of the Aztecs and the Spaniards, and the violence of Tlatelolco as a sign that the "invisible thread" connecting the violent character of Mexican history has still not been broken. Paz treats Tlatelolco as the latest of Mexico's sacrificial rites (Posdata, 89, 123, 125, 40).

The centrality of ceremony in Mexican history can be glimpsed from many of the essays in William H. Beezley, Cheryl English Martin, and William E. French, eds., Rituals of Rule, Rituals of Resistance: Public Celebrations and Popular Culture in Mexico (Wilmington. 1994). For a good sense of the tensions in ceremonial life at the turn of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries in Mexico City which come with modernization, see Juan Pedro Viquiera Albán, ¿Relajados o reprimidos?: Diversiones públiais y vida social en la Ciudad de México durante el Siglo de las Luces (Mexico, 1987), and William H.

There has been no effort in the literature to come to grips with the beliefs and the actions of the President. The official history simply assumes that he was intractable, that he had no interest in reaching a solution to the conflict, that both his personality and the system of government that he represented were authoritarian, and thus inevitably incapable of dealing with any change coming from below. Julio Scherer Garcia, one of Mexico's most prominent journalists, has recently stated, quite simply and dismissively, that the President "preferred the peace of the graveyard to a threat to the Olympiad in 1968" (Estos años [Mexico, 1995], 24). Enrique Krauze offers the first sustained in an effort to include the President as an actor in the events of 1968. Part of his history of Mexico through in-depth political biographies of its leaders, Krauze largely bases this account on his own recollections as a marginal student participant in the movement and on Diaz Ordaz's as yet unpublished memoirs. Krauze's often illuminating but highly emotional interpretation of the events rests on the President's pathological personality, on his conspiratorial view of the world, his "blindness." and his deeply psyhological need to create order out of the chaos he saw around him. See his Mexico: Biography of Power: A Hisiory of Modern Mexico, 1810-1996 (New York, 1997), 665-737. For an earlier effort to make sense of the President's besieged mentality, see Herbert Braun, "Diaz Ordaz y Marcuse," in Nexos. 121 (January 1988). 37-39.

La transformación del movimiento
-
September 18
-
Writing on September 1, Jorge Aguilar Mora was one of the first to recognize formally that the followers of the movement had become its leaders ("La transformación del movimiento," La Cultura en México [September 18. 1968]). The most thorough analysis of the Mexican student movement is Sergio Zermeño, México: Una democracia utópica. El movimiento estudiantil del 68 (Mexico, 1978). who also points systematically to the broad differences between seasoned leaders and the "large radical base." Zermeño's arguments run in a different direction from those that will be attempted here, for he does not seek to trace the behavior of the students to historical roots, nor does he examine the wellsprings of legitimacy in Mexico which motivated much of the student behavior. In his recent work, El hábita de la Utopía: análisis del imaginario sociopolítico del movimiento estudiantil de México, 1968 (Mexico. 1993). 206-14. César Gilabert follows up on Zermeño's ideas, together with the writings of Mikail Bakhtin, so much in vogue these days, to point to the spontaneous quotidian collectivity that marked the movement. He speaks of the festivity and carnival to point to a future Utopian democracy in the making within the movement. Unfortunately, Gilabert does not include the diálogo público as a part of this collective behavior, regarding it instead as a mere set of negotiated posturings on both sides.

Necesidad del diálogo
-
August 3
-
In one of the first lengthy arguments calling for a diálogo, in El Nacional, on August 3, "Necesidad del diálogo," the editorialist pointed out that most of the actors in the conflict, especially the president and the students who had participated in the orderly march headed by Barros Sierra, had everything to gain from a diálogo. By August 8 in El Nacional, Juan Jerónimo Beltrán, "Urgencia de un diálogo eficaz" was already a great deal more nervous, wondering whether the strike would bring social harmony to an end and result in an American invasion, if a real dialogue was not initiated soon. While the official version of the events produced by the militants points to a press that was uniformly against them, I am struck by the multiple and constant efforts on the pan of most editorialists and columnists, most of whom wrote about little else between July and October, to search for a compromise, to ask both sides to give something up. One of the best examples of the middle road between the two contending sides which so many journalists travelled, was written by one of Mexico's most highly regarded historians. Daniel Cosío Villegas, "Frente a Los Hechos, Examen de Conciencia." Excélsior (August 16, 1968). This column marked his return to public writing after years in public office.

There is considerable controversy surrounding the actions of the students on this date. Most of the student accounts state that the decision to remain in the Zócalo that night was either made spontaneously by the marchers, once they were there and found the doors of the National Palace closed and all the lights of the building turned off, or by Socrates Campos Lemos, a student leader held by many to be an agent provocateur. The editors of the 1988 retrospective in Nexos, 121 (January 1988), appear to waffle on the issue. They state that the CNH had declared on September 23 that "a few contingents of students would remain a few hours in that place" and that once there, Sócrates Campos Lemos made his own demand that the students remain until September 1, p. 33. El Nacional reported on the morning of the demonstration that the students made plans for 50 representatives of each of the 70 schools participating in the strike, that is, a total of 3.500 students, to remain in a "permanent demonstration" and that some students were trying to argue against such an action. It is possible, of course, that El Nacional and outside instigators were working together to get students to undertake such a highly controversial action, so that the military could then forcefully attack the students.

For a sense as the events were unfolding of the militants' understanding of how fundamentally at odds a diálogo público was with the authoritarian government, and thus of its impossibility, see the analysis by the well-known political scientist, Pablo Gonzalez Casanova, "El conflicto estudiantil: decisiones y riesgos," Excélsior (September 13, 1968).

A good critique of diálogo público is "¿Circo o diálogo?" written by the Grupo Ariel de la Generación 1929 (Excélsior [September 10, 1968), 10-A): "Every discussion, if it is formal and has the desire to resolve problems with the authorities, has to be carried out in an enclosed, official space, in the offices of the corresponding government entity. There is no reason for it to take place before a screaming, chanting crowd that intimidates the government functionary and lowers his condition as a servant of Mexico."

González de Alba and Taibo II begin to share in the tragedy of Tlatelolco. González de Alba describes Tlatelolco as a series of on-the-spot decisions taken in moments of extreme confusion by fearful soldiers who mistakenly shot against one another, with the crowd unfortunately trapped in between. And he concludes that "we student leaders proved with the crime of October 2 what we had always been saying: the government was incapable of responding unless it was by repressing. In part this was true, in part it was what in social psychology is known as "the selffulfilling prophecy", except that we never expected thai it would come about with such a level of horror. I don't think they did either, neither the army nor the government" (p. 31). The first public account of the massacre which may complement Gonzalez de Alba's is that of the diplomat Jorge Castaneda, who witnessed the violence from a window of the Ministry of Foreign Relations, facing the plaza. In a letter addressed to the New York Times on October 11 and published on October 21, he stated that the firing began from the fourth floor of Chihauhua Building, behind the podium the students were using. He does not know in what direction the shots were fired, or by whom, but that it was widely reported that armed plainclothes policemen had attempted to reach the balcony from inside the building. Once the soldiers appeared on the plaza, most of the students had already dispersed. From this account it appears that the soldiers did not attack a multitude of defenseless students, as was widely reported in the international press, and in the New York Times on October 3. Citing the work of Michael Dziedzic, Roderic Ai Camp states that a decision to clear the square was made by the secretary of defense, General Marcelino García Barragán. Some sources hold that the President was conveniently out of town, and another that he was informed beforehand by the general (Generals in the Palacio: The Military in Modern Mexico (New York, 1992], 27-28).

On October 4, 1968, the New York Times reported that the official toll was 28 dead and 200 wounded, but that there could be little doubt that at least 49 were dead, 500 wounded, and 1,500 taken prisoner. The numbers have been expanding exponentially over the years. In 1986, the wellknown politician, diplomat and historian, Edmundo Flores, claimed that a few more than 800 had died at Tlatelolco ("La UNAM no engendró el conflieto," Excélsior [June 1, 1986]).

Greenfeld, for example, offers an uncritical view of the individualistic form of nationalism which provides little sense of how inequalities and alienations are constructed thereby and a highly negative interpretation of collectivist nationalism that focuses on the role or ressentiment in it. Most of the contemporary literature focuses on the dignity of the individual. See Glen Caudill Dealy, The Latin Americans: Spirit and Ethos (Boulder, 1992), 98-107; Theodore Zeldin, An Intimate History of Humanity (New York, 1994), especially 1-19; Robin S. Dillon, ed., Dignity, Character and Self-Respect (New York, 1995); F. G. Bailey, The Kingdom of Individuals: An Essay on Self-Respect and Obligation (Ithaca, 1993). And it increasingly appears that in the modern world dignity is being understood as a stoic silence in the face of private or public hardship and as a good way of dying.

See, for example, Hugo Gómez Bulnes, "La Inquietud de la Juventud se Manifestó en el Segundo Concurso de Oratoria Masonica." El Día (July 20, 1968). On July 3, El Día, one of Mexico City's largest daily newspapers, began a special weekly section, "Horizontes de la Juventud," on the youth of Mexico and the world. The first issue included an article by Jaime Goded Andreu, "Artistas o no, los Jóvenes Mexicanos Están Obligados a Empeñarse en Cambiar la Sociedad." Three other articles on that day called for a socialist revolution in Mexico, decried the false form of service to the nation which the President called on the students to perform, and claimed that the Mexican Revolution did not allow young people to be young. See also, Javier Gonzalez Batta, "Se Puso de Relieve la Preocupación por la Juventud de México en el Acto de Homenaje a Juárez en el Hemiciclo," El Día (July 19, 1968). who asserts that the integration of Mexico's youth into the nation is "the throbbing national question of our time."

This treatment of the figure of the President in 1968 may best be seen through the newspaper coverage of the President's September 1 Informe. The day was covered with meticulous detail, beginning with the moment the president awakened, his first moves, breakfast, his mood, the clothes he wore, his family, the route he took from Los Pinos to the Palace, the crowds on each side of the road, the look on his face as he got out of the limousine, the parade to the Congress, how he was received there, the number of times his speech was interrupted by applause, and so forth. See the coverage on September 2 in Excélsior, El Dia, El National, among others, and also in the weekly El Tiempo (September 9, 1968).

It is along these lines that columnist Antonio Vargas MacDonald seeks to dismiss the movement. He sees the young protesters placing the natural anger they feel toward their parents onto the "street against that national father figure, which is the government. In the process the rebels feel as though they are 'somebody:' fearless in agression, heroic in punishment" ("¡Pobre juventud mexicana! ¡Quiere luchar y no sabe por qué ni contra quien!," Siempre! [August 14, 1968]). This column was written at least a week before the first student march of August 13. Many of Vargas's subsequent columns in Siempre! are considerably less critical of the students. See his "La juventud abre nuevas puertes a la democracia" (August 28), "¿Partido de la juventud?" (September 4), and "Frente a la represión, la serenidad," (October 2).

For an example of the broad and superficial analysis required to turn 1968 into a world-wide phenomenon, see George N. Katsiaficas, The Imagination of the New Left: A Global Analysis of 1968 (Boston, 1987), who argues that capitalism and its contradictions were the cause of the content and the form of all the student outbreaks that took place in that year. A more thoughtful and nuanced account, but one which remains too simply globalistic, is Paul Berman, A Tale of Two Utopias: The Political Journey of the Generation of 1968 (New York, 1996), especially 21-122.

The Port Huron Statement, which turned into the basis of the student movement in the United States and the founding piece of the New Left is centrally about the relationship between the individual and society. "Loneliness, estrangement, isolation describe the vast distance between man and man today. . . . Men have unrealized potential for self-cultivation, self-direction, self-understanding, and creativity. . . . The goal of man and society should be human independence. . . . This kind of independence does not mean egotistic individualism - the object is not to have one's way so much as it is to have a way that is one's own." (James Miller, Democracy is in the Streets: From Port Huron to the Siege of Chicago [New York, 1987], 332). See also, along these lines, John P. Diggins, The Rise and Fall of the American Left (New York, 1992); Sara M. Evans, Personal Politics: The Roots of Women's Liberation in the Civil Rights Movement and the New Left (New York, 1979): Sara Davidson, Loose Change: Three Women of the Sixties (New York, 1977). For differences between the student movement in Germany and the United States - more social in the former, more individualized in the latter - see Jürgen Habermas, Toward a Rational Society: Student Protest, Science, and Politics ( Boston, 1970). 26-28. Habermas's suggestion that the student movements in the industrialized world may in part be understood by a drive for a new psychological immediacy on the part of middle-class youth which is made possible by an era of abundance, advanced technology, and liberal mores and family structures - none of which were prevalent in Mexico at the time - in tension with many still traditional structures, also points to the distinctions that I seek to make here between the movement in Mexico, and in the United States and Europe (pp. 29-30, 43-46).

The Port Huron Statement, which turned into the basis of the student movement in the United States and the founding piece of the New Left is centrally about the relationship between the individual and society. "Loneliness, estrangement, isolation describe the vast distance between man and man today. . . . Men have unrealized potential for self-cultivation, self-direction, self-understanding, and creativity. . . . The goal of man and society should be human independence. . . . This kind of independence does not mean egotistic individualism - the object is not to have one's way so much as it is to have a way that is one's own." (James Miller, Democracy is in the Streets: From Port Huron to the Siege of Chicago [New York, 1987], 332). See also, along these lines, John P. Diggins, The Rise and Fall of the American Left (New York, 1992); Sara M. Evans, Personal Politics: The Roots of Women's Liberation in the Civil Rights Movement and the New Left (New York, 1979): Sara Davidson, Loose Change: Three Women of the Sixties (New York, 1977). For differences between the student movement in Germany and the United States - more social in the former, more individualized in the latter - see Jürgen Habermas, Toward a Rational Society: Student Protest, Science, and Politics ( Boston, 1970). 26-28. Habermas's suggestion that the student movements in the industrialized world may in part be understood by a drive for a new psychological immediacy on the part of middle-class youth which is made possible by an era of abundance, advanced technology, and liberal mores and family structures - none of which were prevalent in Mexico at the time - in tension with many still traditional structures, also points to the distinctions that I seek to make here between the movement in Mexico, and in the United States and Europe (pp. 29-30, 43-46).

I am struck by the distinctly different tones with which the students were dealt with in the press, and perhaps even in daily life, during and after the events. In Mexico there were very few who lashed out against the students, whereas in the United States the acrimony, even venom, against the young was unmistakable. See, for example, the following, which all trace their new conservative ideas to a personal, often visceral reaction to the events of 1968: Lewis S. Feuer, The Conflict of Generations: The Character and Significance of the Student Movements (New York, 1969); Sidney Hook, Academic Freedom and Academic Anarchy (New York, 1969); Irving Kristol, Neoconservatism: The Autobiography of an Idea (New York, 1995); Allan Bloom, The Closing of the American Mind: How Higher Education Has Failed Democracy and Impoverished the Souls of Today's Students (New York, 1987). See also Mary C. Brennan, Turning Right in the Sixties: The Conservative Capture of the GOP (Chapel Hill, 1995). There is little of this literature among the intellectual elite in Mexico. A review of the debates shows that almost everyone speaks well of the students and that the disagreements are, relatively speaking, quite soft. Three minor exceptions to this conciliatory view of the students are Roberto Blanco Moheno, Tlatelolco: historia de una infamia (Mexico, 1969); Luis Spota, La plaza (Mexico, 1972); and Gustavo de Anda. La máquina infernal: 1968 (Mexico, 1975). None has had much of an impact over time. The most positive interpretation of the student movement is the mystical novel by Antonio Velasco Piña. Regina (Mexico, 1987). Ra ther than attack different sectors of society, or the students, most of the debates in Mexico concentrate on the state, which was attacked both from the left and the right. Its central place in the social order, however, is rarely questioned, as it is in the United States today. See Jaime Sánchez Susarrey, El debate político e intelectuul en México (Mexico, 1993). The first defense of President Díaz Ordaz is the privately published account of his military chief of staff, General Luis Gutiérrez Oropeza, Gustavo Díaz Ordaz: El hombre, el político, el gobernante (Mexico, 1986).

Three minor exceptions to this conciliatory view of the students are Roberto Blanco Moheno, Tlatelolco: historia de una infamia (Mexico, 1969); Luis Spota, La plaza (Mexico, 1972); and Gustavo de Anda. La máquina infernal: 1968 (Mexico, 1975). None has had much of an impact over time. The most positive interpretation of the student movement is the mystical novel by Antonio Velasco Piña. Regina (Mexico, 1987). Ra ther than attack different sectors of society, or the students, most of the debates in Mexico concentrate on the state, which was attacked both from the left and the right. Its central place in the social order, however, is rarely questioned, as it is in the United States today. See Jaime Sánchez Susarrey, El debate político e intelectuul en México (Mexico, 1993). The first defense of President Díaz Ordaz is the privately published account of his military chief of staff, General Luis Gutiérrez Oropeza, Gustavo Díaz Ordaz: El hombre, el político, el gobernante (Mexico, 1986).

The traditional arguments on the political repercussions of 1968 are silent on the role of the thousands of students who had so vociferously protested on the streets in 1968. almost as though they ceased to exist once their protest came to an end. The literature stresses elites, members of the state, and the most well-known intellectuals, perhaps reflecting the deeply ingrained idea that it is elites who make the history of Mexico. The literature stresses the growing distance that takes place between these intellectuals and the state, and focuses on the actions of the state to co-opt and re-integrate them. Examples are Miguel Basáñez, La lucha por la hegemonía en Mexico, 185-209; Yoram Shapira, "Mexico: The Impact of the 1968 Student Protest on Echeverría's Reformism," Journal of Interamerican Studies and World Affairs, 19:4 (1977), 557-580. In his Intellectuals and the State in Twentieth Century Mexico (Austin, 1985), 206-22, Roderic A. Camp points to the many connections, both historically and after 1968, between the state and the intellectuals, but places emphasis on the break between the two as a result of Tlatelolco, concluding that the state has successfully co-opted many of the intellectuals, who in turn have sold themselves to the state.

The state's first public defense of Diaz Ordaz and the first public criticism of the student movement would not appear until 1997, twenty-nine years later. During the ceremony commemorating the eighteenth anniversary of the President's death, his military chief of staff in 1968, General Luis Gutiérrez Oropeza, eulogized the President as a statesman who had saved Mexico from the impending chaos and claimed that the student movement was the result of the machinations of an international Communist conspiracy against Mexico. In an obvious effort to revindicate the former President as the PRI was losing control of the political system in the wake of the July 6 elections, Emilio Chuayfett, the Secretary of the Interior, also attended the ceremony and referred to Díaz Ordaz as a "patriot."

For the many futile efforts by Julio Scherer García, then the editor-in chief of Excélsior to get the president to talk about the events in 1969 before he left office, see his Los presidentes, 27-28. The president understood the journalist's effort to talk about the Tlatelolco as a desire on his part to do harm to Mexico. The two men did talk often about other subjects. In 1977, when Diáz Ordaz was appointed his nation's ambassador to Spain, he did defend himself while placing the blame on dark conspiratorial forces that aimed to do harm to Mexico (Excélsior [April 13, 1977]).

The official view of the militants on the silence of the state can be seen in Hugo Hiriart, "El silencio antidemocrático," Nexos, 121 (January 1988), 15. Hiriart understands the silence as a sign of weakness of the state, its fragility, and its authoritarian inability to communicate openly and democratically with the society. A more illuminating effort to explain the silence among the leaders of the state, in which the state is not conceived of simply as ineffectual, is Arturo Warman, "Secretos de familia," Nexos, 121 (January 1988), 63-64.

Los temples de la cultura

Roderic A. Camp., et al., eds., Mexico

The strategy of the state - if that is what it was - to encourage the criticism of the intellectuals, may well have worked. In 1981, Enrique Krauze offered a warning, based in part on the lessons from the integration of some in the intellectual elite into the administration of Luis Echeverría (1970-76). Krauze feared that many in the Generation of 1968 would end up "building from within" the state, abdicating their roles as real social critics. ("Los temples de la cultura," in Roderic A. Camp., et al., eds., Los intelectuales y el poder en México: Memorias de la VI Conferencia de Historiadores Mexicanos y Estadounidenses [Mexico, 1991] 595-605). Writing in Nexos, 123 in (March 1988), Miguel Basáñez made explicit the evolving connections between the state and the intellectual elite, principally the writers in Nexos and Vuelta, whom he traces to the experience of 1968. "Now, twenty years later, as the students of 1968 begin to arrive at social, economic and political power . . . their task is to rebuild the consensus which after 50 years began to be broken in 1968" ("1968 y el México nuevo" (Nexos, 123 [March 1988], 16). The inclusion of Vuelta here may be unfair, as most of its writers, especially Octavio Paz and Enrique Krauze have remained critical of the state, while Nexos, under the direction of Hector Aguilar Camín, gave itself over to the regime of Carlos Salinas de Gortari (1988-94). As the Salinas years were drawing to an end, Sergio Zermeño, who wrote the most thorough history of the 1968 student movement, points us in a more critical direction. He shows how the intellectuals drew close to the state after 1968 through a reformist ideology, as opposed to more radical alternatives, and concludes with the highly imaginative ways in which Salinas brought the intellectuals into his neo-liberal agenda. The result, according to Zermeño, is a social order deeply riven by economic inequalities in which the intellectuals have been effectively separated from the real lives of the Mexican people (Sergio Zermeno, "Intellectuals and the State in the 'Lost Decade,'" in Neil Harvey, ed., Mexico: Dilemmas of Transition [London, 1993], 279-98). In 1996 political scientist Jorge G. Castaneda concluded that "the people who had believed that things really had changed in Mexico either wanted to believe it because they had an interest in doing so, or they simply didn't want to look hard enough" (cited by Anthony de Palma, "How a Tortilla Empire Was Built on Favoritism, The New York Times [February 15, 1996], 1). Castañeda and Zermeño are but two of many intellectuals who have remained critical and outside of the state.

Although largely unconcerned with the visions and ideals that may be held by those who join the state, the literature on state recruitment in Mexico shows that no significant changes can be detected before and after 1968. See Peter H. Smith, Labyrinths of Power: Political Recruitment in Twentieth Century Mexico (Princeton, 1979); Armando Rendón Cardona. La renovatión de la clase político en México (Mexico, 1990); and Francisco Suárez Farías, Elite, tecnocracia y movilidad politico en Mexico (Mexico, 1991), Roderic Ai Camp, Political Recruitment Across Two Centuries: Mexico, 1884-1991 (Austin, 1995), 88, states that after the Díaz Ordaz administration there was a substantial 36 percent decline in politicians without a college degree and a 14 percent increase in those with graduate training who held places in high office.

Although largely unconcerned with the visions and ideals that may be held by those who join the state, the literature on state recruitment in Mexico shows that no significant changes can be detected before and after 1968. See Peter H. Smith, Labyrinths of Power: Political Recruitment in Twentieth Century Mexico (Princeton, 1979); Armando Rendón Cardona. La renovatión de la clase político en México (Mexico, 1990); and Francisco Suárez Farías, Elite, tecnocracia y movilidad politico en Mexico (Mexico, 1991), Roderic Ai Camp, Political Recruitment Across Two Centuries: Mexico, 1884-1991 (Austin, 1995), 88, states that after the Díaz Ordaz administration there was a substantial 36 percent decline in politicians without a college degree and a 14 percent increase in those with graduate training who held places in high office.

"Life in Mexico doesn't tolerate the margins, the outsides. . . . It doesn't admit disbelievers or heretics, it doesn't believe in a different morality" (Monsiváis, "Notas en torno a la moral social," 73).
