Are
we repeating the events of the early twentieth century, when the great powers
were filled with absurd nationalistic sentiments, in which the great German
power, which at that time was the German empire, felt the right to have more
colonies than Their peers, in which societies were anxious for economic and
military war because their demagogic and populist leaders were sold to them,
because everyone believed that the effects of conflict were something
temporary, a feeling that began in Europe, and later Move to Asia and America?
Muammar
Gaddafi used to say that Libya was the best democracy in the world, Hugo Chávez
Frías insisted time and time again that Venezuelan democracy was a strong
democracy, and Fidel Castro was convinced that his regime was a regime
Democratic right now to all these democratic concepts, we should ask Mr Dump
Trump what he means by democracy, as well as Mrs Angel Merkel and all the
leaders of democratic regimes, because the notions seem to change and vary in
conception , Depending on who observes it.
What
are the explanations of the political sciences about the concept of democracy;
if characters like Trump arrogantly say that I won, hinting that now he can do
whatever he wants without paying attention to the social claims of The American
citizens themselves?
Democracy
is a gelatin, in which its notions stretch and contract permanently, in which
any despotic leader can claim to be democratic without even sharing the Western
conception of the term. Journalists should ask world leaders what do you
understand about the term democracy. To know with some precision if the notions
coincide with what the political sciences and the whole world understands by
democracy.
Now,
I think, from now on, democracy should be added to elements that are not so
democratic. Hitler came to power in Germany, and by democratic means regimes
such as that of Cuba and North Korea were maintained, and by democratic means
Chavismo came to power in Venezuela.
Is
democracy to blame? Rather, it is the distortion of democratic virtues. The
situation in the US is a tenebrous case, the fact that Trump had ordered the
military to complete an oil pipeline to bypass federal administrative agencies,
means that it is becoming a country with totalitarian democracy.
Will
the expressions and social manifestations be enough to stop this? The profound
reflections of the nascent United Nations Organization were sufficient to make
the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The societies in the world, must
bring back these reflections, otherwise we will return to the dreaded epoch of
anti-democratic democracies.
