(en) France, Alternative Libertaire AL #231 - Mexico: Resisting the PRI is to resist the worst (fr)[machine translation]
Date
Thu, 28 Nov 2013 08:57:06 +0200
With the return of the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) since December 2012, we had
written that we were expecting the worst[1]. We are not disappointed. ---- Just came to
power, Enrique Peña Nieto (EPN) signed with the PAN (National Action Party, Catholic
right) and the PRD (Party of the Democratic Revolution, left far more radical) the Pact
Mexico, sealing the unit of the Mexican political class to deepen neoliberal bleeding in
the country. With some paternalistic social programs to get the pill, EPN has undertaken
to reform the constitution to be able to privatize everything goes. It began with
education, and is now tackling energy. National and transnational capitalism benefits and
looting the country with mining or tourism projects wind, hydraulic imposed by force.
Social and indigenous resistance is imprisoned, murdered or forced into exile, while
organized crime runs fine days. This is the beauty of the corrupt political and judicial
system built by the PRI during his 70 years in power.
Self-organization as resistance
Some local struggles come to oppose this movement, the more massive are those of the
Zapatistas and community fonts Guerrero. In this ravaged by organized crime state, many
indigenous communities have organized since 1995 to put out the police and army, largely
corrupt and inefficient, and develop their own police and justice, based on the
rehabilitation and repair. In these regions, affecting nearly 100,000 people, crime and
organized crime have collapsed through these autonomous community practices.
A global social movement struggling to emerge
But the global struggles are harder to articulate. Mobilization against education reform,
for example, took months to train and out of corporatism monstrous education union whose
leader-es are also widely corrupt. Despite attempts to create a popular movement bringing
together teachers, social organizations and parents in some states (Oaxaca, Guerrero), the
movement has not massification and laws were passed. The energy reform recently announced
in a country committed to its oil, however, could cause a massive mobilization. And why
not represent the straw that broke the camel?
