Inflation & Unemployment Low, Tech Development On The Rise: Mexico On A Roll

Inflation & Unemployment Low, Tech Development On The Rise: Mexico On A Roll

Author: Soberanía Podcast February 11, 2025 Duration: 57:02

Mexico wants to become a silicon powerhouse, build a million homes, and defend its sovereignty. In the latest episode of Soberanía, co-hosts José Luis Granados Ceja and Kurt Hackbarth look at plans to create Kutzari, National Semiconductor Design Center, as well as updated efforts to build housing; plus a look at the country’s development model that is keeping inflation and unemployment down. As always we bring you our Losers and Haters segment, this week Joshua Treviño, a right-wing ideologue and former consultant at Booz Allen Hamilton, tries to link Morena to organized crime but only proves his own ignorance.


Navigating the complex landscape of Mexican politics requires more than just headlines. Soberanía: The Mexican Politics Podcast offers a distinct entry point, providing consistent news and analysis grounded in a grassroots, leftist perspective. This isn't about distant political commentary; it's about understanding the forces, movements, and people shaping Mexico from the ground up. Each episode digs into the stories behind the news, examining the players and power dynamics that often get lost in translation for English-language audiences. You'll hear discussions that connect policy to everyday life, analyzing developments with a focus on social movements, labor, and community action. The goal is to foster a deeper, more nuanced comprehension of the country beyond conventional narratives. By tuning into this podcast, you gain access to a dedicated space for thoughtful exploration of Mexican current affairs, where analysis is tied directly to the perspectives of those most impacted by political decisions. The Soberanía Podcast serves as a vital resource for anyone looking to move past superficial reporting and engage with the substantive, often overlooked, conversations defining Mexico's present and future.
