Alerta en el Gobierno por la derrota del PJ en Chubut en la cuenta regresiva hacia las PASO

“En votos no influye demasiado, en imagen sí”, expresó algo resignado y en voz baja uno de los referentes del peronismo bonaerense que se jugará su continuidad en las elecciones que vienen en relación a la ajustada derrota del Partido Justicialista (PJ) gobernante en Chubut, donde ganó el senador nacional Ignacio Torres (Juntos por el Cambio). Más allá de acusar el golpe, que se suma a las…

MONTEVIDEO, Uruguay—The campaign posters along Artigas Boulevard in the Uruguayan capital were striking, featuring Guido Manini Ríos, a former army chief, grimacing in his military uniform. So was his campaign slogan, “For Security,” and his promise to declare a public security national emergency. Crime was a top voter concern in this election, and Manini Ríos’s tough-on-crime Cabildo Abierto party saw opportunity amid high public anxiety.

As it turned out, Manini Ríos won less than 3 percent of the vote in the first round of the presidential election on Oct. 27, down from 11 percent five years ago. Cabildo Abierto will hold just two of 99 seats in the House of Representatives and none in the Senate, compared with the 11 seats in the House and three in the Senate it controls today. Meanwhile, only 40 percent of voters approved of a constitutional reform to reverse a ban on nighttime police raids on private homes. The nominee for Uruguay’s leftist Frente Amplio opposition coalition, Yamandú Orsi, opposed the referendum and aggressive policing, yet he finished first in the first round of the presidential contest.

In an era when fear of violent crime increasingly shapes—and distorts—politics throughout Latin America, Uruguay’s election offers an important lesson. Traditional political parties, by adopting sensible crime-fighting strategies, need not cede space to political outsiders hawking heavy-handed approaches that might threaten civil liberties.

On paper, Uruguay seems vulnerable to a populist offering mano dura (“ironfisted”) security strategies. Once known as the “Switzerland of Latin America,” it saw its homicide rate double from 2011 to 2018, according to the most recent U.N. data. The murder rate fell between 2018 and 2021 and then began rising again, according to Uruguay’s National Observatory of Violence and Crime. In recent years, gruesome killings have highlighted the rise of organized crime, including the death of a 1-year-old boy in a drive-by shooting in October that targeted a gang leader. In late May, a suspected drug-related shooting left four dead, including an 11-year-old boy.

The port in Montevideo is an increasingly important node in global drug markets, where South American cocaine sets sail for Europe. Experts say gangsters from neighboring Brazil—including the First Capital Command—and from Colombia and even Mexico now operate in Uruguay. That has drawn comparisons to Costa Rica, another historically serene democracy ill-prepared for a recent spike in organized crime—a scourge that does not jibe with its pura vida (“pure life”) catchphrase.

Elsewhere in the region, these conditions would provide fertile ground for radical security policies. In 2022, for example, Honduras imposed a state of emergency to reduce extortion. In January, Ecuador declared a state of war against organized crime groups, following the escape from prison of two crime bosses and an explosion in violence.

El Salvador is the most notorious case. The biggest innovation from its ruling New Ideas party was the March 2022 suspension of constitutional rights that paved the way for a crackdown on gangs. The state of exception, still in force, has permitted mass arrests that are filling a new mega-prison and led to allegations of the deaths and torture of detainees.

Instead of criticism, El Salvador’s success in sharply reducing murders and extortion has attracted cheerleaders and copycats. Earlier this month, Costa Rica’s president, Rodrigo Chaves, awarded Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele with the Orden Juan Mora Fernández, its highest honor. In February, Bukele headlined the annual Conservative Political Action Conference in the United States. At the conference, Bukele met with Argentine Security Minister Patricia Bullrich, who said she hoped to “follow the model you’re carrying out.” In late September, Bukele huddled with Argentine President Javier Milei in the presidential palace in Buenos Aires.

For now, however, Argentina’s smaller neighbor, Uruguay, has opted for a more moderate response. In part, that reflects its pragmatic political culture. During the pandemic, President Luis Lacalle Pou promoted libertad responsable (“responsible freedom”) over the type of prolonged and strict lockdown imposed by Argentina. In last month’s election, voters actually rejected a referendum to return the retirement age to 60 from 65, amid warnings from economists that it would break the bank. In the presidential race, nearly 90 percent of voters cast a ballot for one of the three traditional political movements.

The country’s reluctance to militarize crime-fighting also reflects memories of the military government that ruled Uruguay from 1973 to 1985. It is hardly ancient history. Uruguay’s last president, José Mujica of the Frente Amplio, spent 14 years in prison during the dictatorship. Pedro Bordaberry, senior figure in the Colorado Party, a member of the ruling Republican Coalition, is the son of Juan María Bordaberry, the president who shut down Uruguay’s legislature in 1973 and invited the armed forces to rule. Today, 40 percent of Uruguayans have little or no confidence in the military, according to Latinobarómetro, a pollster. Support for the police is somewhat higher.

But the failure, so far, of “Bukelismo” to take hold in Uruguay is also a vote of confidence in the capacity of the country’s democratic institutions to step up to the challenge of organized crime. For a decade, Uruguay has been toughening its approach to money laundering, though there is room for improvement. In 2013, it became the first country to legalize marijuana for recreational use, a partially successful attempt to deprive criminals of a popular product. Lacalle Pou came into office promising that “playtime is over for criminals.” In 2020, the legislature passed a series of security reforms, including improvements to intelligence collection by law enforcement agencies, tougher sentencing, and reduced opportunities for prisoners to leave prison early. In 2022, a national referendum to repeal the reforms failed.

In this year’s presidential campaign, the candidates for the Colorado Party and its coalition partner, the ruling National Party, promised to accelerate security reforms. They floated plans for a task force modeled after Italian strategies to fight the Mafia, increased spending on police wages and training, and deploying more officers to violent neighborhoods. All the proposals emphasized addressing the underlying causes of crime, including poverty. None of them would compromise the rule of law that has made Uruguay stand out in the Americas.

Not all governments in the region are aping El Salvador. Crime is also the top concern in Chile, but its democracy remains strong as ever. Still, Uruguay’s success matters beyond the borders of this nation of 3.4 million people.

Latin Americans—not only in Mexico and Central America, but also in the Caribbean and South America��are increasingly demanding greater safety. The same is true across the West. In response, governments are obliged to provide new approaches. The question is whether those answers will help tear down democracy or build up the rule of law.

@ Patricia Fernández 

[getintok]

I just have such a soft spot for Patricia. I believe she just did 6 semesters of Finance in San Marino because she met her first husband, he must've promise her a wealthy life without any kind of trouble or hardship, I'm sure he told her it was pointless to keep studying and graduate college because she won't need it anyway so she did. Sadly, because she has always been pretty (and because of the ysblf universe) I'm sure everything was always given to her on a silver platter without any effort on her part so it must have been a shock for her to understand that she needed more than beauty for a marriage to function :/ and for her to suddenly be practically a homeless person with a Mercedes if not because of her father and Marcela.

El diario de Betty

Nota #30

"Le contamos la historia de los dos, sin el engaño.

Y, aún, para mi papá fue difícil asimilarlo.

Por primera vez un hombre se atrevía a decirle, cara a cara, que amaba a su hija y que tenía una relación con ella.

Y fue duro para él. Pero era, apenas, la primera noticia dura que afrontaba sobre mí."

“Ahora me tocaba a mí enfrentar a su familia.

Desde que nos reconciliamos yo jamás me volví a ver con ellos, pero ya no podía eludirlos más.

No sabía cómo iban a tomar la noticia. Sé cuánto querían a doña Marcela y cuánto anhelaron que ellos se casaran.

Imaginé que iba a ser difícil que ellos aceptaran, especialmente la mamá. Parece que ya se había      

hecho la idea de que doña Marcela no volvería, ya habían pasado varios meses desde que ella y Patricia Fernández se fueron para siempre de Ecomoda.

No fue fácil convencer a Nicolás que lo mejor era que terminara con esa ilusión. Él dice que entiende que es lo mejor, que no iba a ninguna parte con ella. Y se prometió olvidarla. Pero yo lo entiendo, una cosa es la razón, otra el anhelo. Pero sé que lo superará pronto, ya está dando indicios.

Tenía fe en que saliera pronto de su depresión. ¿Y qué mejor que el universo de Ecomoda? Donde aparecen cada rato rubias como las que lo despeinan.

A pesar de que doña Margarita se encargó de los preparativos, tuve que compartir mi trabajo con todo lo que me implicaba casarme.

Doña Margarita era muy exigente en cada detalle de la ceremonia y por supuesto en el vestido de novia.”

“Afortunadamente él estaba de acuerdo, porque yo igual estaba a punto de renunciar a un matrimonio pomposo. Pero sabía que no sería fácil decírselo a su familia.

Y citamos a sus padres de nuevo para comentarles la decisión. Debo admitir que me molestó que hablaran en secreto, no sabía qué era lo que pasaba y sólo lo entendería hasta el día de mi matrimonio.”

"Espero que cuando él me vea, siga sintiendo que soy la mujer de sus sueños."

Cinco años sin Parra

Actually, it’s now seven years without Nicanor Parra, but that’s the title of the series from 2023.

Capítulo 01: “El Fantasma de Parra”

“¿Dónde habita el fantasma de Parra? Desde su hija Colombina a su nieta Cristalina. Desde Patricio Fernández a Rafael Gumucio, pasando por Matías Rivas, todos cuentan su propia versión de un hombre que dejó un legado diverso, complejo, sombrío, divertido y, la mayoría de las veces, encantadoramente desconcertante.”

Capítulo 02: “Neruda, el punk y los presidentes colgados”

“La relación de competencia de Parra con Neruda. Su hastío con la academia y su actitud punk. Las mafias del Nobel y el episodio de los presidentes colgados.”

Cap03: “Dinero y amor, Nicanor”

"Mira el capítulo 3 de Cinco años sin Parra: una antiserie. En esta entrega, por qué era importante cobrar bien y tener dinero en la cuenta bancaria. La relación de atracción, influencia y conflicto de Parra con las mujeres que cruzaron su vida. La sueca que lo convenció de quedarse en una comida."

Capítulo 04: “Izquierda y derecha unidas…”

“¡Último capítulo! La relación de Nicanor Parra con la política y las ideologías. Qué habría pensado del estallido, la pandemia y el proceso constituyente. Su defensa a Allen Ginsberg en La Habana y por qué se autodefinió ecologista treinta años antes de que fuera un tema real a nivel global.”

“Se estrena el último capítulo de “Cinco Años sin Parra”, la serie de La Tercera sobre el antipoeta” [26 ENE 2023]

Este lunes 23 de enero se cumplieron cinco años de la muerte de Nicanor Parra, y en conmemoración a la fecha La Tercera estrena el último de cuatro capítulos de una serie en la que distintas personas que formaron parte de la vida del poeta -que van desde su hija Colombina y su nieta Cristalina a amigos y editores- intentan, cada uno a su manera, explicar su Parra más personal. El último de los cuatro actos de la serie “Cinco Años sin Parra” se estrena por las distintas plataformas de La Tercera. Este cuarto capítulo se titula “Izquierda y derecha unidas...” y aborda la relación de Nicanor Parra con la política y las ideologías. Con anécdotas e historias que van desde cómo hizo esperar más de tres horas al expresidente de la República Ricardo Lagos, hasta cómo hubiese visto la llegada de Gabriel Boric al poder. También quienes formaron parte de la serie se refieren a qué habría pensado el antipoeta sobre del estallido social, la pandemia y el proceso constituyente, todos sucesos que no logró observar en vida. Asimismo, se aborda la defensa a Allen Ginsberg en La Habana, que lo alejó de Fidel Castro y por qué se autodefinió ecologista treinta años antes de que fuera un tema real a nivel global. En esta “antiserie” hablan sobre el escritor desde su hija Colombina a su nieta Cristalina. Desde Patricio Fernández a Rafael Gumucio, pasando por Matías Rivas, César Cuadra y Adán Méndez, todos cuentan su propia versión de un hombre que dejó un legado diverso, complejo, sombrío, divertido y, la mayoría de las veces, encantadoramente desconcertante. En la primera entrega de la serie se intenta localizar a Parra. Al menos a su fantasma. Y aunque este ejercicio, el viaje, nos diga que probablemente nunca vamos a dar con él, sí queda una frase suya que su amigo, el filólogo César Cuadra, resucita en este primer capítulo: Muerte sí. Funerales no. En el segundo capítulo: Neruda, el punk y los presidentes colgados, se aborda su relación de competencia y admiración con Pablo Neruda; de cómo la academia lo fue hastiando hasta cambiarla por una actitud más punk (y más pop también); de cómo su instalación de los presidentes colgados (llamada “El pago de Chile”) pasó de ser una grave ofensa a la institucionalidad hace poco más de 15 años a volver a la misma Moneda dentro del recientemente inaugurado salón Parra. En tanto, en el tercer capítulo de la serie: Dinero y amor, Nicanor, aborda el porqué para Nicanor Parra era importante cobrar bien y tener dinero en la cuenta bancaria. Asimismo, la relación de atracción, influencia y conflicto del poeta con las mujeres que cruzaron su vida. La sueca que lo convenció de quedarse en una comida, por ejemplo.

It's crazy to me how different the first half of ysblf is compared to the second half.

The genuine empathy and distress you feel towards Patricia when Daniel is constantly harassing and SAing her, how she cries after Daniel's first visit to her apartment, compared to the laughing stock she eventually becomes and how the whole thing with Daniel is basically forgotten with the exception of the occassional nod to it.

How Daniel was a genuine treat always looming above everyone, wanting to constantly humiliate and make everyone feel inferior. His want to prove everyone is beneath and an idiot, especially Armando.

How it was aluded to that Betty was Daniel's ideal woman, but and then when he acted on it it was very... short and forgetable, giving up way too easy, unlike how he persecuted Patricia, tricked her, harassed her and cornered her until he had what he wanted. It felt rushed and our of chqrqcter for him to just give up.

How mature themes like sexuality was incredibly open and suggestive, particularly all those scenes suggesting SA.

How characters like Olarte or Beata simply disappeared as if they never had any relevance. No closure or even using their full potential even though they were often onscreen in the early episodes.

How Armando used to be the paranoid one but after the embargo Mario became the more paranoid one. Mario was much more relaxed and less wild with his proposals and plans at the beginning.

Even Armando’s stress ball suddenly disappeared!

But I also love to compare the character growth and/or regression. Marcela was a much happier and relaxed person at first and ended up an angry and bitter mess. Mario became more obviously a bad influence and completely drifting away from Armando emotioanlly and morally-wise. How Betty stopped fantasizing about being loved and accepted by people who evidently despised her like Marcela and Hugo and fully stopped wanting that from them. I really liked all these characters' progression/regression and redemptions/corruptions. They evolved so naturally. They all started much more neutral but with clear tendencies to "goodness" or "evilness" and as the story profrssed they followed their respective paths.

Man i just love this show so much, even when I still have beef with how some of the characters (I'm looking at u, Patricia Fernández) became by its ending.
