Control the past?
I have the habit of re-reading Orwell from time to time, so it is not difficult for me to go to him every time the MAS tries to “write the past” to justify the present and, to a certain extent, ensure its future; today the Government tries to cause doubts on the Report of the Dialogue Facilitation Process 2019-2020...

My Word to the Country
Throughout my life I have been committed to Bolivia and to democracy, I have practiced it, I have defended it and I have detached myself from power when I had it, because of my conviction that respect for human rights and life is one of its most important values.
Evo Morales is the author of the largest electoral fraud in...

ANGELA FROM HER OWN DARKNESS: A TALE BY RENÉ BASCOPÉ ASPIAZU
I cannot recall when I began to feel fear for that room in the second courtyard. However, I think I remember an afternoon when we were playing soccer, when the rag ball hit the closed door with force, making its worn-out structure creak. Suddenly it seemed to me that the noise that had entered the room was slowly transforming...

LA PANDEMIA DEL COVID-19 VERSUS LA POST-VERDAD
Las teorías la conspiración constituyen un desafío creciente para abordar el COVID-19. Junto a la propagación mundial de la pandemia en sí, las falsas acusaciones de engaños, curas y cábalas secretas circunnavegan los bienes comunes de la información mundial, envenenan el debate, erosionan el consenso de la...

‘Systematic Fraud’
The three times defeated presidential candidate in Peru, Keiko Fujimori, coined a new expression in the already long list of (unproven) complaints in electoral processes in the region: “systematic fraud.” And with that flag, she intends to annul 200,000 votes to reverse the narrow victory of Pedro Castillo (just over 60,000...

At the outset of the 19th century, Mary Shelley wrote and portrayed the character created (with good intentions) by Dr. Frankenstein, from whom the latter’s creation receives the name, and who has become an “evil” being due to his ugliness and marginality (social process of interaction and labeling)....

Prosecutors of hatred and submission
All the powerful, throughout the ages, have had justice under their feet. Surely, in the last century, Hitler and Stalin were the most notorious masters of justice, although surely that Trujillo, Somoza, Castro and other banana autocrats had it in our Latin America.

The Scam
“In the end, what is the future?” reflects the curator, “an excuse to talk about the present.” Gregorio Belinchon.
To speak, also, of the past. In today’s Bolivia, since the current Covid-19 pandemic, it is impossible not to remember the burden of the past almost 14 years of President Evo Morales. It is a past that is cast as a dark shadow...

Its content is very comprehensive, as it would have acquired a plurality of connotations such as: freedom, resistance, rebellion, emancipation, organization, union, integration, etc. Due to its effects, it also reached a highly philosophical content, without prejudice to what those who have been displaced from power...
