Abstract
"El cuestionamiento de dos ideas dominantes A principios de la década de los noventa del pasado siglo podíamos encontrar dos ideas, aparentemente de orden diferente, muy repetidas en los medios de comunicación y en el pensamiento social. Una de ellas podemos resumirla en la afirmación de que había llegado el “fin de la historia”, y la otra era que nos disponíamos a entrar en la sociedad de la información, de la mano de las nuevas tecnologías. No ha tardado mucho tiempo para que veamos que ambas ideas entrañaban formulaciones muy absolutas y que, además, guardan nexos entre sí. Ambas forman parte del discurso hegemónico que se enseñoreaba entonces casi en absoluto en el orbe. Un solo mundo era posible: aquel que se entregaba dócil a las fuerzas “ciegas” del mercado. La lógica capitalista llevada a su expresión más fundamentalista, depredadora, deshumanizada. Para edulcorar la realidad, se hacían promesas de mejoramiento. Unas provenían de la idea del “derrame” de las riquezas que serían generadas por el “mercado libre” y otras por la panacea de las nuevas tecnologías. Sin embargo en esa propia década los movimientos sociales emergieron con fuerza renovada en el escenario mundial. No fue una izquierda rearticulada ni discursos liberadores renovados los que crearon ese surtidor de rebeldía. Fueron, esencialmente, las consecuencias directas de las políticas neoliberales sobre miles de millones de seres humanos las que provocaron ese nuevo “fantasma” que recorre el mundo" ["The questioning two key ideas In the early nineties of the last century we could find two ideas apparently different order, oft-repeated in the media and in social thought. One we can summarize in the statement that had reached the "end of history" and the other was that we were about to enter the information society, with the help of new technologies. It has not taken long for us to see that both ideas entailed very absolute formulations and also keep links together. Both are part of the hegemonic discourse that is then almost completely lorded in the world. One world was possible: he who gave docile forces "blind" market. Capitalist logic taken to its more fundamentalist, predatory, dehumanizing expression. To sweeten the reality, promises of improvement were made. Some came from the idea of "trickle down" of wealth that would be generated by the "free market" and others by the panacea of new technologies. But in that very decade social movements emerged with renewed strength in the global arena. Not a rearticulated left nor liberating discourses that created renewed rebellion that supplier. Were essentially the direct consequences of neoliberal policies on billions of humans that provoked the new "ghost" who travels the world"]
