Una constitución política al servicio de un contrato social: la situación francesa. (Spanish)

FRANCE; MEXICO

Böedec, François. A Political Constitution at the Service of a Social Contract: The French Situation. On the basis of the framework of the constitutional history of the French Republic and French-Mexican relations since the 18th century, the author reflects on the evolution of the political and social project in France, highlighting the key threads that run through it, as well as the changes it has undergone up to the present day. In the second part of the text, Boëdec points out the aspects that today undermine the stability of a social contract, such as the disrepute of politics, cultural and religious plurality, the crisis of the word, or the rise of an individual citizenship at the expense of the community dimension. In his conclusion, the author suggests a number of leads for dealing with the constitutional challenge in France, leads that could prove useful in the case of Mexico. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Con base en la historia constitucional de la república francesa y en el de las relaciones franco-mexicanas desde el siglo XVIII, el autor hace una reflexión de la evolución del proyecto político y social en Francia, resaltando los ejes fundamentales y los cambios que ese proyecto ha experimentado hasta nuestros días. En una segunda parte de su escrito, Boëdec señala los aspectos que en la actualidad cuestionan la estabilidad de un contrato social, como el descrédito de la política, la pluralidad cultural y religiosa, la crisis de la palabra o el surgimiento de una ciudadanía individualista en detrimento de la dimensión comunitaria. Al finalizar, el autor sugiere pistas para enfrentar el desafío constitucional en Francia, pistas que pueden ser significativas para el caso mexicano. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
