Sumario:Today several studies have questioned the usefulness of the terms right-wing and left-wing, to explain the various social-economic-political phenomena occurring in Mexico and the rest ofthe world. In the case of Mexico, in the last two presidential elections, the Mexican society witnessed the phenomenon of power struggle between the so-called Left and Right wings, this situation triggered the interest to continue the study of different characteristics for these dichotomous terms.
