Minga Briefing Social Movements / World March of Women
Latin America is a continent on the move, which in recent years has experienced great changes in the labor movements and new governments with a progressive, seeking to eradicate social inequalities. These processes, with new conceptions of state and Constitution were debated and discussed in the Social Forum
-Asuncion America is already in full swing.
Sharing the experiences of people who have experienced changes in traditional structures of state for social change was the topic that included a forum entitled "Towards other states, constitutional refoundations, multinational and socialism."
exercise by the panelists, was looking at their states and constitutions to understand the processes of change that have been carried out for the inequities in their countries, acknowledging that, although Latin America has many progressive governments, even the challenges to eliminate inequalities are larger, even when the goal is to socialist governments .
"Neoliberalism who live in the 80's and 90's, has deepened a state model with a high degree of privatization, which led to the loss of sovereignty of resources but also to the installation of a neoliberal state vision that benefits businesses, "said Nalu Faria, World March of Women (MMM) in Brazil.
As explained Nalu the current context of the American continent, shows a variety of situations, where there is a pole that seeks to advance the process and areas that govern from the right. Despite that, the representative of the MMM acknowledges that Latin America has been some progress as the reduction of poverty and the incorporation of concepts such as solidarity economy, which in some countries is government policy, which has served to problematize the dominant economy, and make visible the economic practices of the sectors. "
Within these processes of problematization has created new visions and concepts based on their own thinking as the "Good Life" concept comes from the Andean ancestry and Nalu that criterion is an approach that is in line with other realities, such as principles of feminist economics also puts at the center of the model, the welfare of all. Looking for a new vision of human sustainability and incorporates contributions from ecology. " Thus, the "good life" is installed as a concept that recognizes the diversity of peoples and their integration.
Economics from women
"Women are bringing from the feminist fight ideas and proposals to be incorporated in the new conformation of the government that seeks to dismantle las desigualdades”, señala Nalú.
Estas propuestas, se basan en que los Estados tienen que tener una visión que reconozca el trabajo como base de la economía, como creación y recreación humana, en condiciones de igualdad.
Además de eso, proponen la necesidad de reubicar a la economía como parte de la vida, de la humanidad y de la naturaleza; pensar en un Estado que rompa con la jerarquización de las esferas públicas y privadas y el reconocimiento de las mujeres como sujetos, de modo que se les garantice la soberanía sobre sus vidas y sus cuerpos.
Venezuela y el socialismo del siglo XXI
Remirar los procesos progresista que florecen en el continente necessarily mean knowing the situation of Venezuela and its proposals for social change. The changes that have lived the Bolivarian process, are in the hands of a new constitution, a model of a socialist-with a social-ethical end and a new vision for managing the state.
"These changes have been made between people and government, there are changes that are imposed or that a group is planned. All that is built is within the public participation that is enshrined in the Constitution, "said Giuseppe Andres, Parliamentary Venezuela.
Bolivarian process has not been without difficulties, delays, coups and attacks from corporate media. However, as explained by the senator "is a process that is characterized as autopoietic, because it takes elements of the community, government, national and international context and be self-organizing."
One of the features of this process is that it has managed to install alternative to the hegemony raised by the United States, and one of those proposals is ALBA, which was born from discussions of the Venezuelan people, reflecting the tenor of the model participatory installed in the country.
"Ours is a new concept of building laws, which obliged the people is consulted, any law must go twice a popular discussion in different regions and there are methodologies to systematize the proposals after the National Assembly discusses
. That allowed us to systematize the laws, needs and experiences of communities in Venezuela. Here the social subject is essential, "says Giuseppe.
Although Venezuela had a constitutional process that approved the Constitution, the parliamentary representative acknowledges that "the process has not ended, since it is the people who will go as saying the State to direct its action to the people. The people with the state resource managers. There are laws that have been developed that restores power to the people, because here the people are legislating. "
Cuba and resistance
Reflecting on these new ways of running the state in order to socialism also means looking at the processes occurring in Cuba and its revolution.
While Cuban revolutionaries came to power through armed - unlike the rest of the progressive processes in Latin America now living-the process of confrontation against the U.S. hegemony continues as an ongoing process, says the Cuban scholar Felipe Pérez Cruz.
"Cuban Democracy is based on a set of laws which allow the socialist system in Cuba a socialist state is one of the states revolutionary and democratic world, "says Perez Cruz, who also commented that" in Cuba constitutionalism debate continues in our constitution. "
However, the challenges to develop processes with a view to socialism are great and explains Pérez Cruz, as ending the alienation of capitalist relations of materialistic and spiritual relationships. "Socialism is to combat the exploitation of humanity
, and Latin America, is being anti-imperialist and have our love, brotherhood and cooperation with the American people hostage to their capitalism. Socialism is a will of man and woman on the circumstances for what is right and necessary to meet the specific needs and history of our country, "says the Cuban scholar.
