Carlos Salinas de Gortari ((:ˈkarlos saˈlinaz ðe ɣorˈtaɾi)) (born 3 April 1948) is a Mexican economist and politician affiliated to the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) who served as President of Mexico from 1988 to 1994. Earlier in his career he worked in the Budget Secretariat eventually becoming Secretary. He was the PRI presidential candidate in 1988, and was declared elected on 6 July 1988. ==Early life== Carlos Salinas was born 3 April 1948, the second son and one of five children of economist and government official Raúl Salinas Lozano and Margarita de Gortari de Salinas. Salinas's father served as President Adolfo López Mateos's minister of industry and commerce, but was passed over as the PRI's presidential candidate in favor of Gustavo Díaz Ordaz (1964–70). When Carlos Salinas was chosen the PRI's presidential candidate for the 1988 election, he told his father "It took us more than 20 years, but we made it."〔quoted in Jane Bussey, "Carlos Salinas de Gortari" in ''Encyclopedia of Mexico'', vol. 2 p. 1330.〕 A tragedy occurred early in Carlos Salinas's life. On 18 December 1951, when he was three years old, he, his older brother Raúl, then five, and an eight-year-old friend were playing and the Salinas family's twelve-year-old maid, Manuela, was shot. It was never determined which of the three boys pulled the trigger and the incident was declared an accident; it was given newspaper coverage in ''Excelsior'' at the time. A judge blamed the Salinas parents for leaving a loaded weapon accessible to their small children.〔Alexander Cockburn, "Beat the Devil: Harvard and Murder: The Case of Carlos Salinas," ''The Nation'' 29 May 1995, 747-745. Cockburn builds his article around accounts in the Mexican newspaper ''Excelsior'', especially Alberto R. de Aguilar, "(Tres Niñitos 'Fusilaron' a una Sirvienta )," ''Excelsior'' 18 December 1951, 1.〕 The Salinas family did not know the last name of their 12-year-old maid Manuela—only that she came from San Pedro Atzcapotzaltongo—and it is unknown whether her family ever claimed her body.〔Cockburn, "The Case of Carlos Salinas," 745.〕 He has not commented publicly on this tragic early childhood incident.〔Bussey, "Carlos Salinas de Gortari", p. 1330.〕 Salinas attended the National Autonomous University of Mexico as an undergraduate, studying economics. He was an undergraduate when the student movement in Mexico organized against the 1968 Summer Olympics, but there is no evidence of his participation. He was an active member of the PRI youth movement and a political club, the Revolutionary Policy and Professional Association, whose members continued to be his close friends when he was president.〔 Salinas was a skilled dressage horseman, and was a member of the Mexico national team at the Pan-American Games in Cali, Colombia in 1971.〔Bussey, "Carlos Salinas de Gortrai", p. 1330.〕 Salinas was one of the Mexicans of his generation who studied at elite foreign universities. He earned a master's degree in Public Administration from Harvard University in 1973 and went on to earn a Ph.D. from Harvard's Kennedy School of Government in 1978.〔 His doctoral dissertation was published as ''Political Participation, Public Investment and Support for the System: A Comparative Study of Rural Communities in Mexico.''〔Carlos Salinas de Gortari, ''Political Participation, Public Investment and Support for the System: A Comparative Study of Rural Communities in Mexico.'' La Jolla, CA: Center for U.S.-Mexican Studies, University of California, San Diego 1982.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Carlos Salinas de Gortari」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
