In Mexico it seems that society is on one side and the political apparatus by another, very different. In general, judging daily statements by politicians, living a normal world, with problems, yes, but manageable and cared for. Instead the company is reaching its limits as crime, corruption, so despicable, the unstoppable threat they feel their members and can be broken, forever, their hopes, welfare they are entitled, that yes, your life normal: feeling helpless and abandoned, can appear around any corner, without any protection, they break the beam existence.
Yes, the tragedy of Cuernavaca (shipping Javier Sicilia again my feelings of condolence to join him in his pain and despair, and my congratulations on what has made strides in need of all, collective response.) His tragedy is, at least you can say, the button displays a living and tens of thousands of Mexicans, about the whole society, to experience the helplessness of living in a society unprotected, endangered, toy arbitrariness and the absence of reliable institutions, laws that really apply and appeased. Why not, in the hands of many cynical and irresponsible ...
But the drama of a society under threat is even worse when we stop to think for a moment the enormous calamity of a society with deep inequalities which we live. Here permanent despair of life comes to Honduras unexpected, as much for his imminent and unavoidable presence, the feeling of violence and helplessness on the cross. A society under threat from many sides, also for the injustice it entails, is a society that sees change as not only a possibility but probably a necessity, the only hope for the future, the only light and promise to continue to live in terms of humanity.
And then, watch out, because societies become an unstoppable battering ram, showing an unsuspected strength and power. Not so remote or recent historical experiences. In any case, this is our time in countless directions and latitudes. Since the defeat of the bloodiest dictatorships in Latin America for several decades until the unthinkable and unexpected electoral victory of an African American United States (although the Obama administration has disappointed many supporters). And now also the exciting rebellion against tyranny lived much of North Africa and Middle East, particularly involving young people and exploited classes.
requirements of change, democracy and respect for human rights. Demands to put a definitive high corruption. Demands for life and peace. Requirement then, above all, to pacify the existence and start a new course of social organization in which banished the arbitrariness, violence and aggression, and that the power of money, if possible, reduce their greed and domination, its arbitrary reference as unique and highest value .
"We are up to the mother!" True, but someone asked "... and then what ...?" The question is also in the country are reaching the limits and on the verge of an explosion, or series of bursts where appropriate social be very difficult to stifle or prevent. What is amazing is that while desperation and a spirit of protest and demand of however, penetrates the whole social body, down and up again, especially among the youngest and the most needy, the official equipment or appliances are not proceeding as if something important happens near or below them. Their behavior is just as superficial and cynical as they mark their own tradition and history.
I do not mean necessarily that we are on the verge of an armed and violent outbreak, without being excluded, but that the need for change could take unexpected channels today (albeit with significant background.) Most likely, in my opinion, is that this break with the most black past and present, which will manifest mass and spring can be expressed strongly in the electoral process during 2012. Can
follow the beaten paths in the form (cartons and ceremonies ossified) is really attractive to a society that lives and a large dose of hopelessness and anger? Seems very remote. In principle, not the armed and violent outburst, but the majority and radical rejection at the polls, the vote severe challenge to the prevailing cynicism paralysis and, again, demand for change with the weapon more effectively than the majority people of Mexico has and will have their hands in the short term.
I think the situation now is quite desperate for many push, coast to citizens, but especially to the younger and needed, to citizens of the countryside and cities, also the proletariat in general, a tip in 2012 in favor of those who propose a more radical change and the possibility of provide a cleaner and reliable face as head of Mexican institutions. How do you say? "There are people and no leader." And that might be, most probably, the only way open for the necessary change. Or how else can come party?
