arri chavezIt's fascinating that Diaz and his cientificos were looking towards a future of science, logic, progress, and modernization, but only saw authoritarianism as the model to achieve it. "Mexico was in an age of science and reason, and Sierra argued that the nation must not return to earlier, pre-scientific stages of development" (p 47). What do we risk losing when we centralize material, observable reality? Who gets impacted the worst? What parts of humanity starve?
Noah Johnson@arrichavez We risk losing new perspectives, when people are allowed to come to their own conclusions they are able to think outside of the box. With a centralized thinking it can pigeonhole or box in a discussion. #Hist416
