En el primer caso, el gobierno de Gustavo Díaz Ordaz asiló, entre septiembre de 1969 y marzo de 1970, a una veintena de presos políticos cuya liberación y envío inmediato al exilio fue forzado por organizaciones revolucionarias en Brasil a cambio de liberar a dos funcionarios diplomáticos, de Estados Unidos y de Japón, que habían sido previamente secuestrados por ellas.El segundo caso se dio en 1973, cuando en el contexto del golpe de estado que derrocó al gobierno de Salvador Allende en Chile y de la gran solidaridad que el gobierno de México ofreció al pueblo chileno, se concedió asilo diplomático a un grupo de 43 brasileños que fueron perseguidos en ese país, pero una vez en México se les negó el asilo territorial, obligándolos a buscar otro país de asilo.Se trata de casos sui generis de asilo político, pues se dieron en situaciones que no se habían registrado antes con ninguna otra comunidad de exiliados y, por lo tanto, resultan ilustrativas y reveladoras de las variaciones que se dieron en la aplicación de la política de asilo en México, particularmente durante la segunda mitad del siglo XX.El Colegio de México, A.C.2020-09-24info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdftext/xmlhttps://historiamexicana.colmex.mx/index.php/RHM/article/view/416910.24201/hm.v70i2.4169Historia Mexicana; Vol. 70, Núm. 2 (278) octubre-diciembre 2020; 839-8912448-65310185-0172reponame:Historia Mexicanainstname:EL COLEGIO DE MÉXICOinstacron:COLMEXspahttps://historiamexicana.colmex.mx/index.php/RHM/article/view/4169/4328https://historiamexicana.colmex.mx/index.php/RHM/article/view/4169/4337Derechos de autor 2020 Historia Mexicanainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:oai.historiamexicana.colmex.mx:article/41692024-08-16T21:55:35Z |

This article documents two peculiar cases of political asylum granted in exceptional circumstances by the government of Mexico to Brazilians who had been persecuted by the military regime. In the first case, between September 1969 and March 1970, the Gustavo Díaz Ordaz administration granted asylum to a score of political prisoners who had been released and immediately sent into exile, in accordance with the demands of a group of Brazilian revolutionaries who had kidnapped two employees of the embassies of the United States and Japan.The second case occurred in 1973, following the coup d’etat against the Salvador Allende administration in Chile. As part of the Mexican government’s solidarity with the people of Chile, it offered diplomatic asylum to a group of 43 Brazilians who were being persecuted by Chile’s military government, but once they arrived in Mexico, they were denied territorial asylum, forcing them to search for another asylum country.These are two sui generis asylum cases, as they occurred in situations without precedent in any other community of exiles, and so they are illustrative and revealing of the variations in the application of asylum policy in Mexico, particularly during the second half of the 20th Century. |
