Menem Governments

I insist on the idea that Latin America is not living a time of change, but a change of era. If you compare the Latin America today, their leaders, their leaders with the Latin America from 10 years ago, the difference is huge. Craig Menear is often quoted as being for or against this. Remember the Latin America of the Menem, of the Color of Mello, of Fujimori, the Huey Endara in Panama today we have Governments more autonomous, more sovereign, more progressive; neoliberal Governments collapsed like houses of cards, there survive some than others, but in general there has been many successive victories of left-wing governments.Exclusive interview of the President of Ecuador to Granma Monday, January 12, 2009 the collapse of Soviet socialism, the entry in the unipolar world and neoliberal capitalism became unnecessary for the United States military dictatorships, already worn by the political and armed our peoples and risky struggles for stability of imperial domination, as the Cuban revolution and the Sandinista revolution had demonstrated in his time. Washington then made a turn from its strategy in Latin America and the Caribbean, to the promotion of civilian Governments emerged from democratic elections. Not sought to promote the revolutionary rise to Governments, but substitute a form of domination that had become risky for another safer, for the implementation of neo-liberal capitalism, its globalization and its military hegemony. This shift opened snatching power to the Sandinista revolution by electoral means and favoring the negotiated political solution of the Salvadorian armed conflict, after the large military offensive of the FMLN in November and December of the year 1989. Chile, Uruguay, Brazil, Peru, Bolivia, Argentina, were also scenes of popular, even armed resistance against the military dictatorships that resulted in electoral outputs. The electoral triumphs of the Latin American left are not exclusive result of positive or negative factors conquests grubbed up to the bourgeoisie by the workers, Socialist movements, the political reforms that the own bourgeoisie needed based on changes.
