Entrepreneurial, political, media and judiciary elites have seized the global rudder and that of many national governments establishing two overlapped worlds: one of the elites and the other of large majorities of population. The elites’ world commits a myriad of abuses that mercilessly punish the vulnerable, destroy the environment, and suck out the value generated by the entire humanity. To achieve that, it cultural and economically subdue the majorities; it appropriates strategic results that condition the trajectories of our societies and colonizes the minds to sterilize resistances. If that were not enough, elites have the power to destabilize popular-base democratic governments until they are ousted.
The challenge that many of us assume is transforming through political interventions this order imposed behind the back of the world population. It is a tough but necessary path to face. It is an uphill climb full of obstacles, such as: international agreements the elites try to impose in negotiations hidden from public opinion, the imposition of public policies that keep down defenses when face with the possibility of a new global crises, as well as by ignoring a diversity of collective heroes that struggle every day to restore better life spaces. These are issues we address this month, identifying problems and outlining possible, alternative courses of action.
