Scope and Contents

In 1990, Vuelta partnered up with Televisa, the Mexican multimedia mass media company and the largest television network in Latin America, to organize a televised conference series consisting of round tables and interviews with intellectual and political personalities to discuss the rise of "authoritarian socialism" in the Soviet Union and Central Europe. Topics of conversation ranged from the causes and prospects for democracy under "authoritarian socialism", socialism and the market economy, and the resurgence of nationalism, religious, and cultural traditions.

Participants included Juan María Alponte, Daniel Bell, Héctor Aguilar Camín, Carlos Castillo Peraza, Cornelius Castoriadis, Lucio Colletti, Rolando Cordera, Arnaldo Córdova, Conor Cruise-O'Brien, Jorge Edwards, Ferenc Feher, Carlos Franqui, Bronnislaw Geremek, Agnes Heller, Irving Howe, Micahel Ignatieff, Ivan Klima, Leszek Kolakowski, Valtr Komarek, Janos Kornai, Vitaly Korotich, Eduardo Lizalde, Norman Manea, Jose Guilherme Merquior, Jean Meyer, Julián Meza, Adam Michnik, Czeslaw Milosz, Carlos Monsiváis, Juan Nuño, Jean Francois Revel, Alejandro Rossi, Josué Sáenz, Adolfo Sánchez Vázquez, Jorge Semprún, Nickolay Shmeliev, Peter Sloterdijk, Hugh Thomas, Tatiana Tolstaya, Hugh Trevor-Roper, Isabel Turrent, Tomás Segovia, Mario Vargas Llosa, Tomás Venclova, Luis Villoro, and Leon Wieseltier.
