Para la muestra est\u00e1n los dos milagros que obraron las pir\u00e1mides financieras al venirse abajo en las \u00faltimas semanas.<\/p>\n<p>El primer milagrito es la discusi\u00f3n p\u00fablica entre los analistas que han querido explicar la crisis. Algo muy raro en un pa\u00eds donde los intelectuales y la sociedad aborrecen la introspecci\u00f3n, ese psicoan\u00e1lisis colectivo que muestra lo m\u00e1s oscuro del alma nacional.<\/p>\n<p>Pues bien: el milagro es que en ese contexto hayan proliferado el debate y las hip\u00f3tesis alternativas sobre la causa del descalabro de las pir\u00e1mides. Algunos hemos dicho que se encuentra en la combinaci\u00f3n explosiva de una cultura traqueta y un Estado precario. Otros nos han criticado centr\u00e1ndose en el lado cultural del argumento (olvidando su lado estatal) y diciendo que la cultura mafiosa no explica mucho, porque pir\u00e1mides se han ca\u00eddo en otras partes del mundo. Y otros menos rigurosos, como Alfredo Rangel, critican el argumento del pa\u00eds mafioso pero se limitan a hacer un llamado a estudiar las crisis de otros pa\u00edses.<\/p>\n<p>Soy el primero en sumarse al entusiasmo por la sociolog\u00eda y la ciencia pol\u00edtica comparadas. Porque nada le ha hecho m\u00e1s da\u00f1o a las ciencias sociales criollas que la tesis impl\u00edcita de muchos colombian\u00f3logos y violent\u00f3logos, seg\u00fan la cual aqu\u00ed no hay nada que comparar porque vivimos una situaci\u00f3n \u00fanica en el mundo.<\/p>\n<p>As\u00ed que bienvenidos los paralelos con otras pir\u00e1mides, con otros castillos de naipes que se han ca\u00eddo en Rusia, Albania y otros pa\u00edses. Pero mi argumento sigue en pie y gana en cobertura geogr\u00e1fica: all\u00e1 tambi\u00e9n se viv\u00eda la fiebre de la plata f\u00e1cil, pero combinada, repito, con el tipo de Estado precario, poroso y fragmentado que el gobierno de Uribe ha impulsado en Colombia.<\/p>\n<p>Lo cual nos lleva al segundo milagrito de las pir\u00e1mides: haber rayado el tefl\u00f3n que parec\u00eda cubrir a este gobierno. Los triangulitos m\u00e1gicos parecen estar logrando el efecto que no tuvieron la parapol\u00edtica, la yidispol\u00edtica o los nexos oscuros de tantos funcionarios y pol\u00edticos de la coalici\u00f3n uribista.<\/p>\n<p>Queda ah\u00ed otro acertijo para los colegas polit\u00f3logos y soci\u00f3logos, que llevaban a\u00f1os  devan\u00e1ndose los sesos para  explicar el desaf\u00edo del uribismo a la ley de la gravedad pol\u00edtica. Yo, por mi parte, arriesgo una hip\u00f3tesis y una predicci\u00f3n. <\/p>\n<p>La hip\u00f3tesis es que, como ya otros lo hab\u00edan advertido, la luna de miel de Uribe se debi\u00f3, en buena parte, a unas circunstancias internacionales excepcionales. Con la econom\u00eda mundial a todo vapor y el clima pol\u00edtico derechizado por la \u201cguerra contra el terrorismo\u201d de Bush, el barco de Uribe ten\u00eda el viento a su favor. Ahora que vienen las \u00e9pocas de las vacas flacas y Bush sale por la puerta trasera, veremos cu\u00e1nto impulso ten\u00eda el Gobierno por s\u00ed solo.<\/p>\n<p>Creo que no tanto. Por lo menos no el suficiente para aguantar una de las amenazas m\u00e1s serias que pueda enfrentar un gobierno: la furia masiva de quienes ayer ten\u00edan y hoy no tienen nada. La misma furia que desatan todas las crisis financieras que han tumbado gobiernos, desde el corralito argentino de 2001 hasta los colapsos bancarios ecuatorianos de la d\u00e9cada pasada.<\/p>\n<p>Por eso, el pron\u00f3stico es que la rayadura del tefl\u00f3n va a ser permanente. Y va a forzar una transici\u00f3n en el uribismo y en la pelea por la Presidencia en general. Para darle gusto a los que piden an\u00e1lisis comparados, la situaci\u00f3n m\u00e1s cercana es la de Menem hace exactamente 10 a\u00f1os, cuando su hegemon\u00eda de una d\u00e9cada en la pol\u00edtica argentina comenzaba a hacer agua. Y ya sabemos c\u00f3mo termin\u00f3 la historia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The pyramids are those magic objects, talismans that achieved what seemed impossible.
