Opinion Sur
Enduring them, we perceive the dimension and severity of the situations that strike us; not always do we identify with the same clarity the underlying causes that generate ¨what is visible¨ of every situation. When facing burdensome situations claims emerge, resistance grows, we turn to emergency solutions. They are necessary responses to face the strain of what oppresses and be able to keep living as we can. However, if the ultimate purpose is to remove the causes and transform the processes and dynamics that lead us to what is currently happening, this means considering ¨the underlying¨, it will be necessary to resort to understanding in order to comprehend how and why what punishes and subdues occurred. Well developed, understanding helps adopt real transformational solutions.
From its inception, Opinión Sur has focused on trying to unravel underlying processes that generate problematic situations. In this issue three important matters are tackled: tendencies that have been emerging in the march of global economy, causes and origin of situations of insecurity, and critical challenges faced by China, the largest emerging economy. We trust they will be of your interest.
Cordial greeting.
