I am pretty sure that I will be accused by my post-structural
colleagues of being Eurocentric and a big supporter of Political Parties, but I
will allow myself to commit this sin. Sorry for this, but I am still wondering
what is at stake in the protests in Turkey and Brazil. What I fear is current
manifestations seem more an anti-political turmoil than a structural protest
for institutionalize a conflict.
Today here in The Netherlands around 500 Brazilian have been
protested for really good and justified reasons. As you will verify in some
photos that I present here, people were requesting for more quality in
education and health, for more efficiency, and more order against violence, and
more diversity, more tolerance for sexual diversity, more individual rights
(abortion and others), more participation, no more corruption, and impeachment
the President Dilma: They also blamed the World Cup and complaint against the
bureaucratic malfunctions.
And here I show you my sacrilege. This is or is not a fuzzy
manifestation? What political structures support these events? Everything begun
with a protest against the increase of 20 cents in public transport... but this
is really the big deal?
Is it or not a fuzzy protest? If we accept that, what kind
of political or sociological symptom represents this diffusivity?
I only have questions and a huge concern: how these emerging
actors can win the game for more democracy and avoid themselves as a simple
expression of antipolitical?
In Latin America the anti- political way (both left and also
right wing - CHAVEZ or URIBE -) has been played against the democracy with
extensive damage to the political system.
Is not the antipolitical the short-cut to reach the Fascism?
What do you think Social Scientist?
