Danger! Someone has spoken (or thought) Simplifying
two days ago Alvaro Uribe, president of Colombia, suggested as a means to control the wave of violence (again) back to affect Medellín, "link through force public Medellín thousand young students. "Requirement?, Who are students, as informers of the security forces to root out the murder" . These people, adults will receive 100,000 pesos per month, "as a bonus" . (Semana )
In this regard I have heard all kinds of comparisons that range from the Hitler Youth to the Living (armed civilian groups that strengthened the process of forming paramilitary in Colombia that were conceived during the presidency of Álvaro Uribe in Antioquia). Comparisons with either the form of the initiative as its merits, but especially with the consequences that could bring: from being an effective measure to reduce violence, to be a time bomb. Coincidentally
earlier this week I read a story about how the networks of informants during the dictatorship suffered Romania (1965-1989) under Nicolae Ceausescu. This text, in my opinion, shows how effective these networks to reduce violence, and at the same time, other important things like these that seek to save lives.
"" You knew that this fellow who asked 'What RadioFree said yesterday in Europe' or 'Who has visited these days' was an informer Securitate. When we all just convinced that any person with whom we spoke was an agent, the Communists needed to resort to violence unless "says Anastasescu as recently extended its collection of newspapers."
When Ceausescu lost
power, the protagonist of the story gathers her children to tell you something very important:
"The brothers were waiting to be told they could leave. Finally, he was one of those ads made her solemn father. Mr. Anastasescu was silent for a moment before giving an explanation: "We have not been able to count before. If you repeated it at school, we were having problems. " Ana came forward to speak to the ear. He said: "I could tell me in secret."
texts from the Malpensante .
* By the way, and making the mistake to quote myself, an entry published in this space makes one and a half, describing a fictional scenario based on the book Animal Farm by George Orwell.'s entry today, it seems to me that just such a scenario is more real than I recognize.
