Samurai NOVEL SUCCESS AND POWER

By Eduardo Garcia Aguilar


The novel is a literary genre that reached its maximum expression in the nineteenth century, during the expansion and industrial bourgeois Europe and North America , and deployed with all its forces in the world thanks to its close relationship with power, money, utility, energy, the quantity, cost effective, tangible, success and fame, which are basic elements of the era in which we live.
A novelist is great because he just struggles to build a world inside the world, giving its own life and making it into the open volume in the sleepless nights are thousands of things and you hear the endless bustle of the crowds and centuries between music, smells, pain, tears, triumphs, feelings, death.
usually coincide in considering the great novelists of the novel, besides talent, requires more than any great capacity for work and infinite patience. Not necessarily the most talented writers create a vast novelistic work, because many fail with their insanity on the earthly side of the work and tenacity, which is the wood of the great entrepreneurs, builders and politicians.
Sometimes a writer of mediocre talent, but with great capacity for work in the service of a story, you can achieve the feat of creating a world within the world. And sometimes ghosts, doubts and deep fractures cause a great talent is unable to control the river overflowed its feelings and fail in the attempt, mired in an inexplicable and unfair silence.
In the history of the novel there is ample talent cemeteries betrayed by their own weaknesses, great authors died in battle, unable to finish the buildings and pyramids had begun with the momentum of its ambitions juveniles. And in the syllabus of many talents successful medium, which force to apply the ax every day in the sun, by dint of sweat and tenacious suffering and hardships of years, manage to bring down the forest and open spaces before they lead to impenetrable port, the dream cities.
All novelists know that this kind requires 5% talent and 95% of work. Without that 95% of stubborn work of Sawyer and the peasant any big ideas, no plans, no story, manages to reveal and materialize into a book. The poet may fail, their essence and their successes are composed of failure, defeat, innocence and indifference, generosity, while the novelist is bound to get the win and takes his fight to the last breath, win or lose, gain or no recognition of their contemporaries.
As an entrepreneur, novelist working thousands of hours, years, taming his word a world filled with characters, crowds, landscapes and cities where things happen and oppose multiple forces. The novelist coordinates and balances with exemplary tenacity centrifugal forces that can slip out of the work or ruin it if they find the necessary means to deploy the energy that animates the project. The novelist has to be a great leader and the meticulous Balzac's own accountant, you have in mind all the threads of business secrets controlled back and forth and must unify to achieve the objective of getting the product to market and conquer the world.
By contrast, the poet lives in leisure, contemplation, withdrawal, it can never live in his verse or obtain them any financial reward. A great poet may be enough for a few tens of poems written throughout life, it is considered that the proliferation devalues \u200b\u200bthe message of his word. The poet is anchored to the life, works like any other citizen and in some epiphanic moments writes texts that fascinate us. The poet is a medium, poetry is his life, takes in, is transparent and anonymous. Is the neighbor next door.
In contrast to writing novels, displaying their energy protein, author acquires salience in society and in some cases money or political representation. The company rewards you for that extraordinary effort, muscular, to create works with tenacity and munuciosidad watchmaker. The novelist is a great athlete. It is notable as the political or the employer and admired because it undertakes a daunting task over many years of loneliness. And to keep his place in the world, must be present each year with new works or should say about politics, wars, religion. The novelist is a demagogue. Always ready to climb the podium to turn on the people and receive applause. The writer expresses strength of nations, continents, languages, ideologies, such as Tolstoy, Dickens or Victor Hugo. The poet only expresses the mysteries of being.
live in a time when a very famous writer can not be read and even write books not because they do such work is the "ghost writers." Being a writer is now just a "label" social, which can be very profitable. So the Stoic anonymity is delicious and the enjoyment of living literature of the aesthetes, not anxious for power, jurisdiction and the recognition and useless fame.
No writer now comes to be as important as a footballer or a pop singer. The classic or romantic or cursed as a writer, whose boom lived in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, has ended. Through the network we have come to a genuine literary community. All Internet users are writers of a great collective work that will go into oblivion anyway due to the proliferation, crushed itself as a black hole. ! The novel is dead! Long live the book!.
As good shopkeeper, industrial or exporter, the novelist collects materials, trade, invest, save, generate prosperity, plot strategies of seduction of the public and the powerful will take you and escort you to success. If it does not go away. Therefore
admire Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, Balzac, Zola, Melville, Conrad, Mark Twain, Miguel Angel Asturias, Gabriel García Márquez, Joseph Roth, Thomas Mann, Scott Fitzgerald, Truman Capote, Jorge Amado and Alejo Carpentier, among many other novelists of the last two centuries. While our industrial era survived, they pervivirán. In each novelist of today and yesterday provided a Quixote hides gentrified.

LEGALIZE DRUGS FOR DRUG TRAFFICKING EESC


By Eduardo Garcia Aguilar
arise in the global media respected voices that makes this week as the British magazine The Economist, calling for the legalization of drugs in the United States Europe and the world to finally cease the leviathan of the drug, that dominates finance and bleeds planetary entire countries like Colombia and Mexico and parts eaten away by corruption and violence linked to business as Central America, Asia and West Africa, among others.

are tens and tens of thousands of deaths each year by drug trafficking hotspots in cities and on the borders of the countries involved, excluding police and soldiers are drawn into the war against drug lords or young that thousands are forced by the mafia to swell their armies murderers and assassins in Colombia, Mexico and Central America.

Not to mention that prisons in the world are filled "mules" and only dealers who are part of the small scale of business, when the real culprits go free. Young people, housewives, unemployed and poor people cheated and choked by poverty fill the prisons of the world and pay large penalties for bringing in the belly of the drug capsules in a totally absurd waste of lives that calls for compassion anyone.

The fabulous capital of drug traffickers and their associates are being bandied in banks and financial groups in Switzerland, Europe, U.S., Arab monarchies, emerging Asian powers and tax havens, with the complicity of the greats of this world. These monies are used to finance wars, buying governments, finance political campaigns, increase the growth of the real estate industry and automotive luxury and lubricate the hypothetical growth then sink countries like Spain or Ireland. The U.S. arms industry is rubbing its hands freely selling guns to the heads.

United States and Europe, large cocaine to fund the drug, require countries like Mexico and Colombia to shed the blood of tens of thousands of its inhabitants in a useless war, as long as there is demand in these great powers, while consumption is widespread among the upper classes and pay a high price for the dust in the luxury resorts of the Mediterranean and in the clubs and beaches of the United States, will continue to produce cocaine.

drug armies are sometimes more powerful than themselves and even countries involved have the luxury of buying presidents, governors, mayors and judges. The new drug lords are far better than Al Capone and mobsters who grew rich in his time with the traffic of alcohol prohibited.

When alcohol prohibition ceased stopped the hands of these gangsters. Today is alcohol free. If you do the same with cocaine and other drugs, the consumer or the addict buy at pharmacies and governments would no longer spend fabulous sums of giving lives in a senseless war with the indifference of the great powers consuming. The sums wasted today serve to invest in education and health and improve the lives of millions of Colombians, Mexicans and Central Americans.

In Mexico, implementation, suffocated with tape, the young son of the Catholic poet Javier Sicilia and four of his friends near Cuernavaca, caused a national uproar exceptional, tip of the iceberg of a widespread bloodshed in four years killed more than 40,000 Mexicans in a futile war against the drug cartels.

In Colombia, the execution of a couple of biologists love near San Bernardo del Viento, on the Atlantic coast, also provoked a reaction in the media especially the capital, moved by the romantic love story of these innocent victims of drug trafficking and paramilitaries in Colombia.

The son of Sicilian poet in Mexico and the couple of lovers in Colombia belong to the privileged society and were part of this new global generation of kids born in the 80 and 90 which seek to engage with the realities of the world far from the days of the Cold War, using concepts of improvement ecological and humanistic world. It is a new generation of idealists who thought they could move freely to do good without being paid in the currency of evil.

not tried in both cases of privileged boys seeking only profit and power at all costs as adults, but young people seeking a better world without violence. Colombians killed just trying to study the behavior of manatees find plant fossils and explore the biological riches of a fabulous country, while the young Mexican was a militant humanist poet like his father.

At first the riddled with bullets while walking taken from hand in the middle of the nature paradise of the department of Cordoba and the young Sicilian and his friends suffocated and left tucked in the trunk of an abandoned vehicle, his hands and feet bound like cattle.

These young idealists killed in Mexico and Colombia by the relentless forces of drug traffickers are the symbol of this cruel to force us consuming countries. While they happily consume a prohibited drug, tens of thousands continue to die in miserable and innocent in our countries. You have to legalize drugs to stop the apocalyptic traffic full of blood lost paradises on earth.

Dialogue with the Major Arcana. BASIC WORKSHOP




continue with the series of the major arcana of Marseille. Today
appeared arcane No Emperor IV.

The majesty of this card reminds us of distant times our memory back to the medieval heroic characters. The archetype that meets the Emperor is the image of the Father, paternal authority. The benefactor and protector of the tribe, but also that governs, regulates and distributes the law. Not executing it.

Emperor reminds us that it is necessary to take things seriously when it is important to bring them to fruition, discipline and good work are priorities for him and is very strict in these matters, but the results are worth it, as the Emperor is prosperous and has the ability to realize almost immediately that everything in focus. Arguably, the Emperor is in the ordinary world, the personification of the Law of Manifestation. Everything that he sees embodied Empress.

As the law himself, his arm is unwavering. This may lead eventually to a certain rigidity in the forms and character, those that are marked by arcane No IV. However, the extent of protection offered his arm has no limits. They tend to be people with a tendency to find experiences or try to deal with the law, whether for good or for ill. The truth is that the Elmperador are marked by their protégés, whether they have to learn a lesson or have already been learned and are implementing their orders.

is therefore a sovereign . A man for whom the doors are always open, for all his power to give up, if necessary (and depending on the other mysteries that surround it), will obey by force. He commands and he always has the last word. Only character will be weak if the Devil or hanging too close. The one vice, and the other by too much compassion.

arcane is a very suitable when we are immersed in the chaos. The Emperor brings order and priority, ranking it all in easily identifiable categories, because he does not like wasting time. Its most benign, is presented as a man between 57 and 63 years. White hair, but still cheerful heart, recalling his younger years with nostalgia, but without bitterness.

is so generous that gives more than what is expected of him, particularly if it is very close to the Sun Arcane The number 4 is associated with this arcane has Kabbalistic meaning new beginning, but at a higher and more refined. What gives power to the emperor that holds so proudly. Shows that it has already done part of his job and is halfway between birth and death.

is the complementary Male Female Principle, necessary for creation.

An interesting game that we can take to work with the Emperor, would be:

When you need discipline to pursue an issue in your life, get this letter apart from the rest of your deck tarot. Place in the center of the reading table and shuffle the rest of the deck while you focus your mind on the matter. Place three more cards on the table. Below and left one representing the pro-matter. One below and to the right, this letter refers to that which is opposed to the topic of your query. And finally, above, over the head of the emperor, the last letter, this is the conclusion. Is directly related to your topic and the answer that gives you the Emperor to resolve your situation.

Most municipal Web sites lack security

Security is one of the components that 90% of municipal web sites in Mexico have not bothered to improve because they do not offer online payment service, said an assessment by the Autonomous University of Mexico State. This year the sample is extended to 508 municipalities, including the 16 municipalities.

Gateway to Hermosillo Sonora state capital was the best qualified, followed Colima, the Miguel Hidalgo in Mexico City and the municipality of Tlalnepantla de Baz mexiquense. While municipalities Peñamiller in Queretaro, Simojovel, Chiapas; Ahualulco, San Luis Potosi; Dzilam de Bravo, Yucatan were the lowest evaluated 0.00781 points.

These low ratings reflect the low adoption of information technology (IT) by municipalities, although they have an internet presence, lack of a technological development that helps their users to access their information line. This is reflected in 17% of municipal web pages consulted where all content is under construction.

also found that 26% of sites were disabled or had a malfunction and 1% of the URLs were not within the municipality.

To obtain these results the study rated the information offered on the portal, the number of procedures and services are available and perform through it, as well as the transparency of the site, web 2.0, ie the level of interaction with applications that displays the page, design, safety level for payment procedures, in addition to technology and citizen participation and feedback.

In the last year, according to UN data, Mexico has lost 19 positions to provide e-government than it puts in place 56 of the world rankings. The main challenge for a country to implement the e-government is the number of citizens who live and demand.

THE NIGHTMARE OF APRIL 9 IN COLOMBIA

By Eduardo Garcia Aguilar
The day of April 9, 1948, when they killed the Liberal leader Jorge Eliecer Gaitan, is marking 63 years after Colombia's history with his devastating presence of destruction , intolerance and hatred.

Every time the country emerged a figure as the "black" Gaitan represented a distinct alternative to the bipartisan power was eliminated or harassed violently, as happened also to Rafael Uribe Uribe and Bernardo Jaramillo and hundreds honest opposition personalities. Even an entire game Politically, the UP was recently wiped out entirely unpunished by the dark forces of national intolerance.

Like a bad nightmare, we must recognize that the country is still ruled today in the same exact positions for the grandchildren of some of the protagonists of April 9 that broke in half the country's history, which shows Colombian politics that usually remains the preserve of the old oligarchy that was expressed earlier in the trenches of El Tiempo and El Siglo and today it does for Caracol and RCN.

dynasties and queue one after another to increase indefinitely the power for ever and ever, as if Colombians do not we take our own destiny. Santos, López, Gómez, Rojas, Lleras, Barco, Pastrana, Peñalosa, Turbay still there firm in the same places of their ancestors, while new names dolphins Galán Gaviria are already preparing for divine dictation to assume the reins of power inevitably when their turn in a few decades. For eight years we had a crazy Santos vice president and now a wily Santos as president. And everything indicates that it is preparing to climb the throne of Bolívar's grandson Lleras Restrepo.

affects even the dynastic drama to the Left. The grandchildren of the dictator Gustavo Rojas Pinilla, children the famous "Baby" Maria Eugenia, dominate the Democratic Pole and the mayor of Bogota but govern as Caligula's horse and even a Lopez leads the party of the people of course.

The main embassy of the country are fiefdoms of families. For the love López Gómez London and Paris are fascinated. If Virgilio Barco was ambassador to Washington, of course, her daughter Carolina I had to be someday. If Misael Pastrana was ambassador in Washington before he became president through fraud, of course, his son Andrew would have to fill those positions as well.

If it is a genealogical study of the top leadership of the country, can certainly conclude that Colombia is a country even more dynastic than an old Arab or European monarchy and members of some of those families, although they are almost silly, arrive late or early to the highest dignities.

No wonder then that when the "infamous mob", the "rabble", the "ignorant rabble" Colombians killed his "black" Gaitan, son of a radical bookstore in a modest neighborhood Bogota, which seemed to be heading for winning the 1950 presidential election, the city was devastated in a day of rage and destruction. Y that on the smoking ruins of Bogotá and the body of the inbred Gaitán top leaders agreed in its conservative and liberal Palace in exchange of "posts" to avoid the collapse of the government.

I have reviewed with attention to two books written in the heat of events by representatives of the various forces in conflict. One of the conservative Ospinista Joaquin Estrada Monsalve, entitled "On April 9 at the Palace. History of a coup ", published days after the tragedy, and one of the poet and journalist left Luis Vidales," The uprising collapsed. On April 9, its theory and praxis. "

Monsalve Estrada describes clear and vivid prose, the days of 9 to April 10, viewed from the perspective of Ospina Pérez, so live every minute history amid fears that the "rabble" would take the palace liberal .


also attended the final settlement between liberal and conservative leaders to save his skin. We emphasize the description of the protagonists, as the cold leader, descended in turn from presidents, to whom one of his servants, Augusto Ramírez Moreno, came to tell the next day was a "demigod." All figures are in the tragicomedy Dona Berta Hernandez with a gun in his belt, Guillermo León Valencia, Laureano Gómez, Darío Echandía, Carlos Lleras Restrepo, among others.

Luis Vidales, the famous author of "beeps" Gaitan who met in Europe and was his friend, described by its leading intelligent part of the popular, full of strange aura about him when playing his village and was on his way to the presidency, to the astonishment of Lleras and Santos and conservatives. His book is a desperate defense of the headless mob at the betrayal of their leaders and after the assassination of their leader.

And as you read these texts you realize that the country has changed very little. On one side the "infamous mob" decadent, manipulated, violent, criminal, outlaw, eternal child and the other naming the immovable scented few hereditary families, Santos, López, Gómez, Lleras, Ospina, Rojas, Barco, Turbay Pastrana, Samper, Holguín, Galan, Dolphin avorazados Gaviria and anointed by God's grace.

I: Zhu Shixing and Daojin

Zhu Shixing in the middle of the third century, was the first monk relevant travelers that we have some news. Start your journey to the Territories of the West in Chang'an in 260, while living in Khotan, but leaving nothing written about his journey. Other monks travelers of his time were Sakya Shi, author of News of the West Territories (Xiyu ji), and Zhi Sengzai, who wrote a review of foreign countries (Waiguan shi). Another monk, Zhu Fawei was the author of a story called Fogu ji (Buddhist Kingdoms News). Some ancient sources tell us of other monks wandering left some account of his travels and adventures, although we have only brief mentions about them. Baoyun is the case, Zhu Zhi, and Fasheng Sengbiao. The latter seems to have been the author of Value of a tour of foreign countries (Li Waiguan). In this same time emphasizes mainly Daojin, frequent traveler and expert in Sanskrit, for which we know was sent to the Territories of the West by the emperor Wendi (Southern Song dynasty, first half of the V) in search of some sections translated by Dharmaksema Nirvânasûtra. Finally we can not stop naming Daorong (Daoyao), which we went through Shule (Kashgar) in their journey to India in 440.

The Best Bathroom Cleaner

THE GHOST OF JOHN CORNELIUS RULFO

By Eduardo Garcia Aguilar *
The Legend of Juan Rulfo among writers of today and tomorrow will be fixed as of those who rebelled with all her strength to the bondage of self-image and vanity. Maybe next to Samuel Beckett and Julien Gracq and a few others, the Mexican author refused to board the coach of the 'literary career', mean vehicle in these times of commercial pragmatism devours writers around the globe.

That this man, with a huge celebrity won against all odds and perhaps despite themselves, have resisted the temptation to make money by offering books by the piece, shows that the voices of his delirium came from a site very peculiar material which reveals only the wisest, the most authentic writers.

Newcomer to Mexico, I was able to find several times in the cafeteria and library Agora, alone or talking to the waiters, and I also had the wonderful idea to tell him not to approach it as his gesture marked and marks to the writers of my home country , beginning with Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Alvaro Mutis who gave as an example read the legendary book perdre Páramo.

Rulfo modest dress in dark suits, white hair slicked back showed her white forehead and is sometimes seen with huge horn-rimmed sunglasses. Sometime in the morning we were both over several hours the only customers in the cafeteria located in the high library Insurgentes Avenue and my communion with his presence that was another one of those epiphanic moments in life when one knows the power of truth and authenticity is there next.

was not in my case this idolatry that now prevails in the world to the best-selling writers and win prizes, more crawling to the power and the rich, but who was the veneration of a sort San Francisco Latin American literature.

I can say I'm crazy when comparing Rulfo with St. Francis of Assisi, but I find another figure with whom comparison. If the name of San Francisco approach shown here to Rulfo's because the real writer is always someone close to holiness and exercise comparable to religion.

The Rulfo I saw this long time without a book or a newspaper in his hand and only exchanged hot words with the waiter, had just returned from a trip to China and was staring in a strange ironic peacefulness saint. While his contemporaries intrigued here and there, or throwing stones or looks of hatred, or strutted seeking power, he was not afraid to go down to the reality of that table and that coffee shop, unaware of what they call "glory."

Rulfo also appeared to me in dreams and I see it clear in one of those dream trips. I was on a hot Brazilian population, perhaps Paraty, with colonial houses and cobblestone streets and suddenly I was in a cemetery. Rulfo suddenly appeared, he sat beside me and I would talk about something absurd like ocher color of autumn leaves. His eyes were watery, distant, whom he knows dreams, fantasies, unreal, mythical concrete, fantastic image, body of air or poetry. This meeting is for me as real as if it were true, as the true years ago in the cafeteria The Agora, a morning without date.
Rulfo
left us in a few pages the deeds of these men on earth they are and have always been the same, marked by prayer, fear of death, pray for rain, curators of wounds, groaning in darkness. Now I'm back to Talpa, El llano en llamas, Tell them not to kill me, Luvina, inheritance Matilde Arcángel Pedro Páramo, I felt the thrill of knowing that I was ever close to a writer who knew the voices of others that it emerged in the desolate afternoon of the 50's. Crying, land, mountain, mountains, tomb, inheritance, father, shooting, sore, frogs, pilgrimage, prayer, prayer leader train, disease, Silence, words that gives rise to the literature.

When he died I had another chance to be close to him. Colombian television asked me about the world images of the recently deceased and then toured the sites where he walked in the Mexican capital, bookstores preferred neighborhood street where her apartment and the offices of the National Indigenous Institute, on Avenida Revolucion, where he worked for years. I entered his office he still fresh, I saw his mug of coffee and heard the low cry of his secretaries, who saw him come and go from there, oblivious to the glory that was chasing him and for decades.

The fury of the autocratic power of a president who thought he had fallen on Rulfo Quetzaltcoatl years earlier, he had the audacity to comment on the military.

Today nobody remembers the incumbent president and Rulfo's work is increasingly present because it recounts the sufferings of a people that is and will continue suffering, far from any redemption on earth. Rulfo's is a voice that is always there as a pyramid, a mountain, the voice through a twentieth century man wanted to express that of the spirits that inhabited this land for millennia and will continue populating when there is nothing .

Lancing Pus On Throat

A recent attack shows the weakness of the secure version of HTTP. Decalogue

Segura Transfer Protocol HTTPS Hypertext or enables encryption of data sent from our computer to a server.

Basically, when using an HTTPS web page encoding session or SSL digital certificate, so that the user has some assurance that the information you are sending can not be intercepted and used by others.

To date HTTPS was considered the best way to create secure communication even in an insecure network, despite a recent attack has brought some doubts on this protocol.

In an HTTPS connection, a browser displays a web smoothly only if it includes a security certificate signed by an independent agency to ensure its authenticity. It seems that an agency issued certificates inappropriately (thanks to a stolen access credentials) that allowed an attacker to create fraudulent websites by design seemed true and from which it came to spying certain communications.

In particular was the Comodo Certification Authority that issued the SSL certificate for allegedly fraudulent Microsoft, Mozilla, Google, Skype and Yahoo (mail.google.com, Login.live.com, www.google.com, login.yahoo. com, login.skype.com and mozilla.org), leading to the realization of phishing attacks almost impossible to be detected.

However, Comodo after being aware of the problem and make him known, caused the fraudulent certificates were canceled and the main web browsers updated to ensure that the detection of such certificates.

Despite the complexity of the attack, it has been able to show that weak point remains the secure version of HTTP, and commonly used by banks and e-commerce platform has been extending its popular services like Twitter or Youtube. Web Development

Diseases in the Culture of the West: Other and the myth of progress *


Part II



The centrality, orderly place, reasonable, ethical-political, hierarchical and cultivated the sacred area of \u200b\u200babsolute reality, linked also to the mountain or tree, mythical connectors between the higher and lower, works as a ordering principle, existential, geographical and cultural human reality and the world, offering the projection of different spatial regions, neither homogeneous nor indeterminate, but differentiated and prioritized from the center, ie from inside to outside. A characteristic of traditional societies is, in fact, the tactics opposition between an area "downtown" inhabited, and space "peripheral" unknown, mysterious and unknown that surrounds it: the first is the cosmos, the rest, forms a kind of external world, a strange space, chaotic, full of demons, of outsiders, is essentially , an unknown territory that participates in the fluid and larval appearance of chaos. If this space, profane, deals, and the human being installed on it, is symbolically transformed into cosmos. This "cosmization" of foreign lands is, in all cases, a kind of con-consecration. For mythical-religious consciousness, sacred space is therefore the only real and everything else is an extension report. This mythical vision responds to a conception of the universe and human culture established from an ethnocentric perspective and "absolute", ie a self-enclosed world, with a core and a periphery known mysterious, unknown, but over which There is, however, desire to learn, but always drew the privileged and culturally superior center (1). Ethnographic curiosity idealist who will be deployed on the external world and mysterious, unknown and feared, be construed as a claim ordering, such as a desire to control and subdue the world, trying to overcome, and the psychological impact trance imagine living creatures space chaotic, uncontrolled and unknown. This image, culturally consistent, almost xenophobic, where the center corresponds to the cultural refinement, impact on the ideal of knowing the world as a need to dominate in imagination, above all, not everyday spaces, those unknown and remote, indefinite and unlimited . The other vision, remote and exotic in the confines of the paragraphs and strangers, is a reflection of a "present" age, which forms the background of a corporate level corresponding to the oldest (or primitive and wild) stages of man. The "peoples" were conceived far in the background as men "Primitive," archaic and distorted versions of the remote ancestors, still living in the world today but in a different time and distance. The other, in this case, means in the context of an ideology of power, status of children of the people "downtown" have escaped (2). Fighting spaces would become, well, in a dramatic elimination of the bestial, hybrid and chaotic compared to the consolidation of the idea of \u200b\u200ban ordered world and culturally regulated. Cultural submission of distant peoples, peripherals, involves the demonstration of the power of a ruler on spaces or less culturally distant. Western modernity has led to an uprooting (3), a disenchantment (the ostensible aim of the intangible and magical-spiritual), giving absolute primacy to the individual and the reason, all motivated by a social resizing of religion. This has involved achieving a significant step, which occurs from a sacred social order to another secular. Each of these orders has its particular roots and, of course, its own identity, which amounts to saying that each one can imagine in a specific cultural matrix, which implies a sense of belonging. In the holy order man is integrated into society but does so in the constituent components of the universe in a nutshell, there is complementarity time-spirit, a kind of empathy, in the secular order, however, that cosmic unity is broken by the installation and exclusive dominance of modern humanism, which excludes, as it were, any link with the divine, with the past mythical. It protects, therefore, identity. Start a new man who seems to have gone through the past. Ultimately, what we have is a dehumanized individual, however, requires a transcendental holism, despite the overwhelming impression of Christianity in its various forms. The world of this guy who just mentioned is the formal political agenda, the public sphere and civil society. The new order secular is assuming the presence of a maturation process prior potential of nature, considered, yes, transcendent. This is the reason that exceeds the error, superstition, magic and myth is, in essence, the idea of \u200b\u200bthe myth of progress that weaves science and utopia, and embodies Europe as caput mundi, which implies a civilizational superiority paradigm that avoids the many forms worldwide, as well as otherness, which provides unlimited space and time unclassifiable. Is a reason to replace improperly causing an impoverishment of imagination by the character "reductive" in the same applied to the world created. This mythology progress in any case, does not cover, however, the forms and structures of the ancestral wisdom of the companies, nor the fact that the group feels that shares culture, language, history and common religion (in this sense the messianic -apocalyptic might be assumed, ironically, in the social imaginary) below historical contingencies or particular policy options (4). Europe is established as a myth of collective cultural belonging, and Western culture as a universal right, from a privileged processing of knowledge, shaped by the Jewish heritage through Christianity, coupled with the idealized intellectual self-consciousness of Hellenic; in this case, the truth has been added to the well and being. Western Europe has always had a certain idea of \u200b\u200ba supranational order, under which functioned relatively contingent, individual states. The myth of patriarchal production (associated with classical Greece and the Roman Empire, and made in Europe) is in the modern political logos most appropriate insertion in its attempt to entertain the truth illustrated, defined as the agreement between the Entity, ie The social reality, and the Mind, ie the state. This got a kind of secularization and disenchantment of the world demythologization archaic sense, relegating the archaic world of sense to the realm of the liminal, in marginality, almost nonexistence. Clear that such relegation has been and is, his disease, because therein lies the malaise of our Enlightenment ideology, the political dismissal of feeling and reduced to a merely functional significance, forgetting the mysterious and dark relegated mythic, symbolic, magical and religious (5). The logos, thus masking the background sacral ritual camouflaged, but the state. In short, the production-patriarchal myth symbolically repressed the axiological meaning of existence, only surfaced culturally. The scope of meaning is superseded by the cops and abstract political consensus. The discomfort and perhaps tragedy West, stems from the fact that culture can not save tax for the sake of the same modernist logic (6). Technological thinking and industrialization resulted in a cultural choice that has clearly opted for rationality. The renewed emphasis on regionalism prevailing, the heated debates about the grief that raise these modern times, the proliferation of sects and brotherhoods, and the culture of marginality, are reactions that testify to a profound malaise caused by the unstoppable tide of inhumanity. In short, a re-humanization, an appreciation of knowledge and the truly hidden in a horizontal world in a secular time where the current order posfundacional try to recognize more than one nucleus can, and should, be invoked as an absolute necessity. The bet must be, therefore, by a culture of respect, in the form of conversation, and not by a rigid structure, built on the epistemological foundations constrictor, allowing intimate with the sense that focus on demonstrating immutable truths.

Notes


1. These visions of the world are a persistent theme in Western culture from Greek conceptions, but are also present in societies culturally introspective, closed in on themselves and a large accumulation of historical events (India, Iran, China). See, the Espelosín Gómez, FJ, (trans.), Greek paradoxographic. Oddities and wonders, edit. Gredos, Madrid, 1996, specifically, pp. 13-14; the same author, The discovery of the world. Geography and travelers in ancient Greece, edit. Akal, Madrid, 2000, pp. 7, 18, 164 and 206, and Hartog, F., Memory of Ulysses. Stories over the border in ancient Greece, edit. FCE, Mexico, 1996, especially p. 16 ff, 131-132 and 133 et seq.


2. Antiquity, poured into images of distant places, like western ethnology. Remote and inhospitable places and ancient times, are unobservable and therefore fruitful, since it opens the door to imaginative projections. See, the Fabian, J., Time and the Other: How Anthropology Makes Its Object, Columbia University Press, New York, 1983, especially pp. 15-40.


3. About rootlessness in modern society see Gauchet, M., The disenchantment of the world, edit. Trotta, Madrid, 2005, especially chapter 2, pp. 64-70 et seq., And Taylor, Ch, Ob. Cit., Pp. 77-79 and ss. On man as an agent in your ordinary mundane see themselves self as an individual, is very suggestive Dumont, L., Essays on individualism, Alianza edit., Madrid, 1987, in particular, p. 45.


4. The idea behind the unit chosen by a company under common sense issues, there was invented a common past, which serves as a thread to the fabric of nationalism has been raised in Gellner, E. Nations and Nationalism, Alliance edit ., Madrid, 2003, pp. 25-30, and Hobsbawm, E., Nations and Nationalism since 1780, edit. Criticism, 1998, in particular, pp. 35-50 et seq. We would add that the imagined past paradigm is useful and therefore functional.


5. The ancient wisdom recognized as cosmocentric and ecocentric, is superimposed on the other knowing, rational, anthropocentric and technocentric character, somewhat dehumanizing. See, the Trias, E., The Age of the Spirit, edit. Mondadori, Barcelona, \u200b\u200b2006, in particular, pp. 61-105.


6. See Lambropoulos, V., The Rise of Eurocentrism: Anatomy of Interpretation, Princeton University Press, Princeton, 1993, especially pp. 78-86, and Davies, MW & Nandy, A., Barbaric Others: A Manifesto on Western Racism, edit. Pluto Press, London, 1993, especially p. 68.
