2007-11-07 10:39 Un tango político. Las mujeres en frente.
Este artículo, de los New York Times en EE.UU., habla del tema de las mujeres en el mundo de los políticos. Por mucha de la region, las mujeres están ganando poder como presidentas. La equidad de género ha esparcido por muchos países de América latina. Este cambio en la figures políticas significa el deseo de salir de los gobiernos del pasado y empezar otra vez con nuevas caras.

2007-11-02 15:06 La coronación de Cristina Fernández
The Economist vuelve en su edición de este viernes sobre la victoria de Ms Cristina Fernández. El semanario británico analiza los desafíos que la nueva presidenta deberá afrontar, y se pregunta si será capaz de tomar las medidas impopulares necesarias para reencauzar la economía. The Economist cree ver más continuidad que cambio en la próxima gestión, sin por ello dejar de mostrarse (relativamente) optimista.

2007-10-22 22:45 COHA Report. The Organization of American States: On its Deathbed
To Our Readers Unfortunately, an older and unedited version of the COHA piece entitled The OAS: On its Deathbed was inadvertently sent out to a very small cohort of COHA readers on October 17 before an error was discovered and the press run was immediately aborted. Due to a computer editing error, the author, Sean Bartlett did not catch that two different facts were spliced into one sentence. Jose Miguel Insulza, as a young man in his late twenties, was a political director in the Chilean For …

2007-10-20 12:37 Venezuela's Communist Party and the PSUV: To Join or Not to Join
Shortly after his presidential election victory in early December last year Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez called on all the parties that support him to join together to form one united party, the "United Socialist Party of Venezuela." Not every party agreed. Jerónimo Carrera, Chairman of the Communist Party of Venezuela (PCV), explains his party's reasons for that decision. read more

Although the United Nations' World Bank is dedicated to "fighting poverty" in developing countries, communists like Venzuelan Tyrant in Training Hugo Chavez contend that these institutions actually promote "neo-liberalism," a communist codeword for capitalism. In other words, although the UN is fundamentally a communist project, the capitalist nations have sprinkled their leaven into its institutions. Thus, the need to create Banco del Sur (Bancosur), or the Bank of the South. On October 8 the f …

2007-10-03 12:22 Chavez New Constitution: Article 16
Preamble : When I first asked the editor of this blog to allow me to comment on the constitutional modifications of articles 11, 16 and 18, I was totally aware, from the first reading, of the dangers that the modifications to article 11 posed to the Venezuelan democracy. At that time, I also thought that commenting article 16 was a waste of time because the text of this modification is the closest I have ever seen a constitutional text come to the legendary dyslectic speech of that beloved chara …

2007-09-26 02:11 President Clinton as King Kong
It seems every year, crazy leaders of antagonistic countries come to the United Nations and make outrageous speeches. President George W. Bush got hit last year by Venezualean President Hugo Chávez who called him a devil. This year, Iranian President and Holocaust denier Mahmoud Ahmadinejad railed against "selfish and incompetent" powers that have "obedience to Satan." I guess Bush and the USA is somewhat diabolical in his view. This has all happened before. In 1950, according to the Internation …

Two weeks after the massive 8.0 magnitude earthquake that cracked open south-central Peru, homelessness, disease, and despair still lay in all directions while international aid has been staggered at best and painfully inadequate at worst. But the magnitude of the statistics wrung up by the natural calamity is graphically illuminated in headlines of the BBC, New York Times, and CNN: 514 are dead, 1,090 are injured, and 39,741 are homeless with the range of all of those stricken or affected by th …

While crowds of cheering supporters gathered outside the National Assembly in Venezuela on Wednesday, August 15, President Hugo Chávez outlined what could be the most radical phase of his proposed amendments to the constitution yet, the elimination of any term limits on the re-election of any candidate as well as lengthening each presidential term from six to seven years. These proposals reflect concerns in the Chávez camp over the shortcomings of the present constitution, which mandates that he …

Katy says: This article by The Guardian on Chávez's tirade against the newspaper in Aló, Presidente is priceless. The dry English wit drips off the (web)page. Rory Carroll, Aló Presidente - Episode 291: When Chávez Reclaimed Las Malvinas, The Guardian, August 28, 2007. The question landed on Hugo Chávez's desk with a thud and he paused to inspect it.

In April 2006, after a failed attempt to demolish the structurally unsafe bridge on the highway connecting Caracas with the Port of La Guaira, the Chávez opposition expressed outrage at government incompetence. Manuel Rosales, the opposition candidate in the December 2006 presidential elections, accused President Hugo Chávez of "allowing the Caracas-La Guaira bridge to collapse" and "having inaugurated scores of public works projects without completing them." However, on June 21, 2007, President …

2007-08-25 13:23 Political cartoon of the morning
A few days ago I wrote this post giving a brief round-up of what other important bloggers were saying about Chávez's new constitutional reforms. On of the things on which I commented was the political cartoon which Incognito had posted. Given the fact that rumors of Fidel's death have been circulating the blogosphere more intensely than usual, I thought this would be a good time to comment a bit. The cartoon itself makes some very interesting points, a few of which are quite perspicacious, other …

2007-08-25 06:30 Quotable quotes
The continuation in authority of the same individual has frequently been the end of democratic governments. Repeated elections are essential in popular systems, because nothing is so dangerous as allowing a single citizen to remain in power for a long time. The people gets used to obeying him, and he gets used to ruling it; whence usurpation and tyranny arise. A proper zeal is the guarantee of republican liberty, and our citizens are more than justified in fearing that the same magistrate, who h …
