| Description: | This paper puts to test the hypothesis that Mexican citizens are dissatisfied with its government because it has not fulfilled expectations, mainly in regard to economy and security, since political discontent with Mexican government has become a problem for democracy in this country. Using data from the Latinobarómetro, it was found that those with worse opinions of economy and security are actually those who held the worse opinion of the government. However, this relationship did not appear when real economic and security data were considered instead of the perception of these, so qualitative interviews were conducted, and it was found that citizens have a moral expectation of their officials that seems to determine their opinions and expectations. This moral demand doesn’t appear to be related to pragmatic government performance. Este artículo pone a prueba el argumento de que la ciudadanía de México está inconforme con el Gobierno de su país porque este no ha cumplido sus expectativas, principalmente en lo referente a economía y seguridad, lo que es un problema para la democracia mexicana. Utilizando datos del Latinobarómetro, se encontró que a peor opinión de economía y seguridad, peor evaluación del Gobierno. Sin embargo, dicha relación no apareció cuando se consideraron datos reales de economía y seguridad en lugar de la percepción sobre estas, por lo que se hicieron entrevistas cualitativas en las que se vio que la ciudadanía tiene una expectativa moral de sus funcionarios que parece determinar sus opiniones y estar poco relacionada con el desempeño gubernamental pragmático. |
