Aquí en México se vive un ambiente muy critico, ya que durante las elecciones presidenciales se llevaron a cabo muchas irregularidades con un mismo fin, que es el de imponernos a el candidato Enrique Peña Nieto como presidente de nuestro país, atravez de la compra de votos, corrupción por parte de el instituto federal electoral, etc.

Tratamos de que el cambio a un mejor camino para la democracia sea por la via pacifica.

Queridos estimados amigos Mexicanos, Thank you for your petition requesting my assistance in your conflict concerning the conduct of the recent national election in Mexico. I am pleased that you are seeking an alternative to the use of violence in the conflict concerning the results of the election. I am also pleased that you understand that my studies of nonviolent protest and struggle offer an important alternative to violence in serious conflicts. I hope that Mexicans who do not agree with you will also be pleased that you want to urge your views without the threat or use of violence in the political conflict. Their recognition of this and therefore their restraint in responding to your pressures can only benefit Mexico in a time of great violence. I regret that you are unaware that both my personal policy, and that of the Albert Einstein Institution, prohibits our giving instructions for action in other countries and becoming participants in such conflicts. We cannot know the situation in-depth in such conflicts, and our instructions would very likely be in error. We therefore could unintentionally help to defeat the struggle to which we might be sympathetic. At least equally seriously, in case of that movement being successful, the credit might wrongly be given us. The credit for successes is deserved by the brave participants in the nonviolent struggle, not outsiders. The participants will have earned the victory by their courage and disciplined struggle, despite casualties and suffering. We believe that it would be an injustice for us to claim credit for their victories. Therefore, we do not tell people how to conduct their struggle. We help in an other way. We share knowledge about the power and potential of nonviolent struggle. We share information of how people in political need can become competent to plan their own strategies for necessary struggles. See www.aeinstein.org for my publication "Self-Liberation: A Guide to Strategic Planning for Action to End a Dictatorship or Other Oppression," which is freely downloadable, along with all the required readings. We refuse to tell people in conflicts what to do. We try to help those people to plan their own struggles competently. When they plan competently and struggle skillfully, they will deserve the victory and credit. Study, planning, and thinking takes time. Defeat can come quickly. Success may come when it has been earned. Saludos! Gene Sharp
