Pienso en eso cuando leo la \u00faltima columna de Alejandro Gaviria titulada \u201cSociolog\u00eda antiuribista\u201d, en la que descalifica la importancia que tienen las manifestaciones p\u00fablicas de fe cat\u00f3lica que, con motivo de la liberaci\u00f3n de \u00cdngrid, ha hecho el presidente Uribe. Para Gaviria, ese camanduleo presidencial, que tanto atrae la atenci\u00f3n de columnistas y periodistas, no tiene mayor importancia, es obra de soci\u00f3logos livianos y distrae de aquellos asuntos que son verdaderamente fundamentales, como la iniquidad tributaria, el estado de derecho o la modernizaci\u00f3n del pa\u00eds.<\/p>\n<p> Alejandro tiene raz\u00f3n en atacar la desviaci\u00f3n idealista que consiste en decir que el mundo avanza al ritmo de las im\u00e1genes y creencias que promueven algunos de sus intelectuales, sacerdotes, soci\u00f3logos y abogados. La sociedad y las instituciones no est\u00e1n hechas a imagen y semejanza de sus mejores ideas, como pensaba Hegel: ni la iglesia es simplemente la materializaci\u00f3n de nuestras creencias religiosas, ni el Congreso lo es de nuestras convicciones pol\u00edticas, ni el Reinado Nacional de Cartagena de nuestra percepci\u00f3n de la belleza femenina.<\/p>\n<p>Sin embargo, en su cr\u00edtica al idealismo, Gaviria parece caer en la desviaci\u00f3n contraria, es decir, en la desviaci\u00f3n materialista, que consiste en pensar que las ideas son un mero subproducto de la realidad y que lo que verdaderamente jalona el mundo no son las creencias o los valores, sino las relaciones econ\u00f3micas. En eso comparte \u2013seguramente a su pesar\u2013 la opini\u00f3n de Karl Marx cuando dijo que \u201cNo son las ideas del hombre lo que determina su existencia sino su existencia social lo que determina sus ideas\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Desafortunadamente para los acad\u00e9micos \u2013incluso para los buenos acad\u00e9micos como Alejandro Gaviria\u2013 las cosas no son tan simples como Marx o Hegel pensaban. Entre las creencias y las condiciones materiales hay una influencia rec\u00edproca constante, de tal manera que, a la postre, es muy dif\u00edcil establecer qui\u00e9n determina a qui\u00e9n. Lo material tiene tanto de ideal como las ideas tienen de material. La sociedad es eso, una mezcla compleja de ideas, creencias, pr\u00e1cticas y condiciones materiales. Por eso es tan dif\u00edcil pasar todo an\u00e1lisis social por el tamiz de los n\u00fameros, o de la demostraci\u00f3n emp\u00edrica (por eso tambi\u00e9n, claro, se dice tanta bobada, impunemente, en el an\u00e1lisis social).<\/p>\n<p>Por todo esto, no me parece irrelevante que el presidente de un pa\u00eds que proclama la libertad de cultos y la separaci\u00f3n de la Iglesia y el Estado, suspenda una intervenci\u00f3n p\u00fablica para rezar el padrenuestro, d\u00e9 gracias a Dios cuando le salen bien las cosas y le pida a cardenales y obispos que le sirvan de intermediarios para calmar la ira que le causan los jueces de la Rep\u00fablica. En Colombia la gente no s\u00f3lo cree en Uribe, sino tambi\u00e9n en todo lo que Uribe dice y cree \u2013o al menos en lo que dice creer\u2013 incluida la Iglesia Cat\u00f3lica, el padre Marianito y que Dios le tiende una mano cuando \u00e9l la necesita.<\/p>\n<p>Yo no s\u00e9 si el Presidente realmente cree en lo que dice creer, pero estoy seguro de que sabe que creer eso es \u00fatil pol\u00edticamente. En eso comparte la opini\u00f3n de John Knox cuando dijo que \u201cun hombre con Dios de su parte, siempre est\u00e1 en mayor\u00eda\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Definitivamente todos deber\u00edamos aprender sociolog\u00eda de los pol\u00edticos y de los publicistas que los asesoran.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Referring to a native doctor of the Amazon, Levi-Strauss stated at some time the following: &#8220;The cham\u00e1n Quesalid was not a great doctor because he cured the sick, but he cured the sick because he was a great doctor&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":18,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1022],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-26014","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","medium-el-espectador-en","post-scope-aaa-not-blog"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.9 (Yoast SEO v25.9) -
