About the need to institutionalize a space for debate, participation, and horizontal construction

The populist experience itself demonstrated, by its absence, the need to institutionalize a space for debate, participation, permanent horizontal construction, so that the different sectors that compose it can find a space to settle their differences that, without opposing the minimum agreements, will appear throughout the administrations.

About the impact of video games

Video games allow people to live experiences, enjoy activities, while individuals immerse themselves in a hypnotic state, feeling like individual and meritocratic heroes who have the courage to face the conflicts that arise in the virtual space – dangers, struggle, enigmas, labyrinths, etc. We see emerging in this subjectivity a new omnipotence of the self: individuals who operate in a rapid time, constantly measuring their performance, without risking anything or having to put their bodies on the line.

About the role of the financial system

The financial system as a whole does not generate value by itself, but its role is to reassign value between sectors, hence its negative aspect is the reallocation of value towards non-productive strata that in a short time can obtain large profits, undermining the desirable development of economic activity. And it is precisely for this reason that it is essential to regulate its operation in such a way as to direct its full potential towards the productive sectors, underpinning long-term investment and innovation.
