Economic engagement in Mexico is a historical act of pure exclusion. Cultural filters from the US prevent voices from expressing their true thoughts. The spread of economic and democratic ideals have resulted in the exclusion of voices from the system and the persecution of those within and is intellectual Fascism.

Our failure to understand constitutes the death of identities, the exclusion that people face is an exclusion from the system and a persecution within the system. Those outside become lost to time while those inside become subjugated

Then, … hegemony,
The uni-vocal viewing of the resolution constitutes a totalizing relationship to the other. United states economic engagement with Mexico looked at from the United States perspective is the construction of the US as the ‘observer’ who creates society and manifests in murder of the Self

Revolutions against totalizing exclusion fail. Advocating critical rejections of the system only ignore that history is not divided by periods and oppressive regimes but rather connected by a series of events, networks, and narratives. This viewing subjugates the movements and recreates the impacts.

The status quo Political fails to understand ‘the Haunting’ or the reappearances of ideological battles into the world. Unless we prioritize listening to the Subaltern and restructuring pedagogy we will fail to address root causes properly

Hauntology is Jacques Derrida’s last great deconstructive attack on knowledge. He coined the term in his expanded lecture from 1993 (published in 2006), Spectres of Marx: The State of the Debt, the Work of Mourning and the New … (Derrida, 2006:69).
This debate round is an intellectual opportunity to engage in the critical pedagogy of the forgotten voices, to cast off the master narrative
Thus, Francesco and I poly-vocally advocate the resolution as a pedagogical experiment.
Poly vocal learning is the best way to solve any problem they critique by taking the point of view of the group they solve for instead of making them subjects for traditional historians to study

By advocating the resolution as a space to understand and critique the systems that recreate our failure in engagement with Mexico, we begin the deconstruction of our totalized relationship with those lost in the politics, the subaltern.

This … agency.
Our methodology is based on perspective, NOT a prescription, and is a pre-requisite to normalizing relations with Mexico—we both have a perspective and listen to all voices and views. Critical pedagogy is the constant analysis of institutionalized knowledge and is key to engaged citizenship, intellectual dialogues, and true democracy. This means we control all of the internal links to their framework and methodology.

It is within discourse that the chaos of the world transubstantiates into experience. Discourse renders the world and the social intelligible.
