Review of Los valores de los mexicanos, vol. IV: Retratos de los mexicanos, by Pedro F. Hernández

Abstract

As part of the processes of social identification and transformation, the analysis of Pedro Hernández’s surveys is an effort to highlight sociologically the value dimensions of the human. His study covers the variables of all sociology and class perspectives, not only to provide an interdisciplinary approach to knowledge but also to think critically about the surveys themselves, seeking to bring out what strengthens social relations, what is missing, and what is hidden within the devices of private initiative and the survey’s concepts and definitions.
