¿Fin del orden de posguerra? En @lanacioncom.bsky.social argumento que este annus horribilis no es una ruptura, sino un reacomodamiento como los de Truman y Nixon para asegurar la ventaja de EEUU frente a la URSS y permitirle volver a una hegemonía benévola. www.lanacion.com.ar/el-mundo/la-...
En @lanacioncom.bsky.social poniendo a Venezuela en contexto (como intervención de Estados Unidos y como transición de régimen), con tablas y datos sobre cada episodio anterior y una conclusión: América Latina tiene que jugar un rol mucho más activo www.lanacion.com.ar/estados-unid...

Este documento indaga en la inutilidad de la aspersión aerea para erradicar cultivos de coca y demas, la cual generalmente provoca mas violencia y deslegitima al estado, incentivando la violencia contra agentes estatales

If we set aside ad-hoc explanations, two forces stand out in shaping global development: colonial institutions and war—even if the former fails to explain Europe itself. Latin America has long tilted the debate away from the latter, but what if the real driver was war here as well?👇
