Carlos Ornelas evaluates how power relations have been constructed inside the Mexican educational system, from SEP (Secretaria de Educacin Pblica) and SNTE (Sindicato Nacional de Trabajadores de la Educacin) to dissident groups such as Seccin 22 and CNTE (Coordinadora Nacional de Trabajadores de la Educacin.) He also identifies two central educational projects disputing within the educational system that, at the same time, respond to constructed logics in an international level: a neoliberal project, protected by global tendencies that understands education as a service subjected to the laws of supply and demand; and a democratic project, that understands education as a fundamental right for the full development for human capacities. Ornelas explains that both projects oppose to a hegemonic project protected by national traditional corporations: neo-corporatism.
