Argentina shows in recent years a startling drop in almost every aspect of your life, who have been learn about other times not so remote in time, are amazed witnesses of how we won the mediocrity, while other Latin American countries, once looked at us with admiration and envy, now we have to be more reliable passed legally and economically but above all to be able to invest in education, culture and scientific research.
stagnation is the result of wrong policies of state leaving only a stable and sustained support for the three items mentioned above, there may be fortuitous for economic growth situations, if the current boom in soy, but if that situation is dissipated, as is happening to us now, we can hardly be that nation again that between 1880 and 1950 was an example in the world for their achievements.
The decline of our country is structural and starts with that unfortunate phrase "sandals yes, no books," which was representative of a worldview that was leading us gradually to the cultural gap, moral and ethical in which we find ourselves today. Among the graduates were half sadly remembered as "kapok flower," which questioned the credibility of the tall houses of study in Argentina, which until then had its graduates international standards. The decline of the national state target was installed and replaced the educational excellence to be had, filled with orphans in a society that was proud of his achievements.
This social decline has been installed because there was a political regime was installed that allowed mediocrity as a paradigm to achieve and that all proposals that were really unpopular overcomes sounded like as if the gains daughters would not be social strife and an intellectual vanguard to think how to run those. More than sixty years of betting on proposed anti intellectuals could only have the result we see today, the institutionalization of mediocrity, which for lack of other references and the possibility of comparison seems natural and even dressed up as liberalism, making is different than what is described as "oligarch", conservative or gorilla.
If we focus on the case of India we will see that come out of its lethargy by investing in science, which has enabled him to be among the four economies in a few years will be the dominant world, where part of BRIC, which was totally unthinkable in a country that until a "handful of decades," was highly stratified by caste insurmountable.
few days ago I saw an act bewildered "academic" of a faculty of the National University of Cordoba, which was absent not only the anthem "Gaudiamus Igitur" which is a beautiful piece Latin translation that encloses a single rogue the students' youthful years and always in the Grade Snacks was sung by the choir most of the university or by the respective faculties. Now in its replacement and "great" musical contribution to the event could be heard two instrumental folk themes, a song of Sui Generis and the traditional "stones Scratches" by Charly García.
This at a university like ours was a few years, something that could only imagine a night of high fever, but what was even more indigestible me was to see the Director of the School, which is below the Dean and Vice Dean the highest authority of a career clapping from the stage, leading me to wonder if these attitudes are not a "childish" progressivism that rules the country and universities, "if an artist sing popular things we are more liberal or more" left?
For So when comparing the attitudes of those societies to overcome their own limitations was boasting multiple setbacks children, or overcoming the contradictions that had been postponed? In the simple answer to this question lies nothing less than the future of a nation as stadiums or exceed "innocence" or continue in the basement of the development.
The republic has just lost a symbol of intellectual ability and ethics as Ernesto Sabato was however beyond the usual obituary information event "social" Argentina was the final of Big Brother, which synthesizes us clearly what it is this descent into the worst Dante's hell as the functional illiteracy that we have produced.
few decades ago our country had the largest English-language publishing industry and supplying the world market with classical and literary avant-garde, now that industry is lacking and all we supply the rest of the continent is art colony scandals, politics and football . Mayor
example of decline is difficult to find and plot it should look just society is pending proposals Tinelli, who either dance, sing or dream to do so, in one of the most absurd process of putrefaction of the ideals a country can have.
All this nationally, but the same situation exists at the provincial level, where other actors are produced by repeating the same situations as a tool scandal opioid social comptroller. Córdoba that the bells of Cordobazo, Tosco and Lopez has given way to mediocrity and failure of governmental Giacomino, the scandals Phallus or investment funds in the clubs of the capital. Little is learned that province, where he was proud of the level of discussions in streets, bars or newspaper without citing that arose in the departments of the university that the momentum of the reform of 18 was the great social laboratory of the Mediterranean province.
If we continue down to the skirt, not surprising that we are twelve years of cultural orphans and who has been responsible for no event log in creativity today is a candidate, because ultimately what has been done is play " social forms of production "in the words of Althusser predominant in the nation.
request that the situation would be different would be a total nonsense, since the flatness formula gives results for now and then because if you raise the slightest effort of thought we have a poppy assured. Mayor Mark Sestopal
eagerly sought, that the little time I run the Board of History make an opinion stating that in the Eden Hotel ghosts exist, a proposal so outlandish that luckily found no echo, but not stopped trying and have been through a pseudo study of a no less "phony" documentary that is ensuring well, certainly contrary to everything that science says about it, but more serious is that the news seems to be so central that some take it as the great discovery of recent times.
As you can see, everything in the country is barren of ideas, because having them can be a danger to the interests of certain groups to gain political benefits situation, although the level is growing worse and only have a final destination as well fall into a more intellectual take us down yet.
We can only hope we recover those values \u200b\u200bwhich since 1880 has left us positivism and allowed us to be among the top ten countries in the world, and that in this way easily be among the ten most backward in the world.
