De hecho, marca el fin de 30 a\u00f1os de neoliberalismo global y abre un proceso de transformaci\u00f3n institucional que no se viv\u00eda desde el fin de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. As\u00ed que a detenerse en la circunstancia y el personaje del anuncio, que muchos medios pasaron de largo por concentrarse en el t\u00edmido abracito entre la reina Isabel y Michelle Obama.<br \/>\nComencemos por la circunstancia, que estuvo cargada de simbolismo. Sucedi\u00f3 en la Catedral de San Pablo en Londres, donde Brown se dirig\u00eda a ONG y organizaciones religiosas que llevan d\u00e9cadas abogando por los millones de pobres que ha dejado la globalizaci\u00f3n desregulada. Organizaciones que \u2014contra la opini\u00f3n de economistas que las tildaban de radicales, ilusas y hasta mentirosas\u2014 hab\u00edan advertido los riesgos de la \u201cautorregulaci\u00f3n\u201d de los mercados financieros, los efectos nocivos de la versi\u00f3n dogm\u00e1tica de las privatizaciones y el peligro ecol\u00f3gico de la competencia econ\u00f3mica global.<br \/>\nLa ocasi\u00f3n fue simb\u00f3lica tambi\u00e9n porque la c\u00e9lebre iglesia est\u00e1 ubicada a pocas cuadras del centro de negocios de Londres: la famosa \u201cCity\u201d, que super\u00f3 a Wall Street en la carrera por desregular el sector financiero y hacerse el de la vista gorda con los excesos de los banqueros que quebraron la econom\u00eda mundial. Por eso el anuncio con olor a incienso es, m\u00e1s bien, un r\u00e9quiem por el neoliberalismo.<br \/>\nPasemos ahora al personaje. Que Gordon Brown sea quien canta el r\u00e9quiem tiene una carga simb\u00f3lica a\u00fan mayor. Porque \u00e9l fue uno de los arquitectos del sistema econ\u00f3mico e institucional que colaps\u00f3, primero como ministro de Econom\u00eda y hoy como primer ministro. De ah\u00ed que su condena suene mucho a autoflagelaci\u00f3n cristiana en Semana Santa. \u201cLa globalizaci\u00f3n sin supervisi\u00f3n de nuestros mercados financieros cruz\u00f3 no s\u00f3lo fronteras nacionales sino fronteras morales\u201d, dijo ante el Cristo de San Pablo.<br \/>\n\u00bfQu\u00e9 sigue ahora? Ni m\u00e1s ni menos que la definici\u00f3n del nuevo r\u00e9gimen internacional que regular\u00e1 la econom\u00eda global y reemplazar\u00e1 el sistema forjado en Bretton Woods en 1944. Aqu\u00ed hay tres posibilidades.<br \/>\nLa primera es que el \u201cviejo Consenso de Washington\u201d del que habla Brown sea reencauchado y reemplazado por un \u201cnuevo Consenso de Washington\u201d tan excluyente como el primero. A eso parecen apuntarle algunos sectores del gobierno Obama cercanos a los mercados financieros, que quisieran cambiar algo para que todo siga igual.<br \/>\nLa segunda opci\u00f3n es que se forje un consenso Washington-Berl\u00edn-Beijing, que impulse una regulaci\u00f3n m\u00e1s estricta y multipolar de la econom\u00eda global. Este es el escenario m\u00e1s probable. As\u00ed lo muestran los resultados de la cumbre del G-20, en especial la revitalizaci\u00f3n del Consejo de Estabilidad Financiera que le pondr\u00eda coto a los banqueros y la orden que le dieron al FMI para que deje de imponer su receta de liberalizaci\u00f3n y austeridad fiscal alrededor del mundo y se dedique a su misi\u00f3n de dar liquidez a la econom\u00eda global.<br \/>\nEl tercer escenario posible ser\u00eda un consenso m\u00e1s incluyente, digamos un eje Washington-Berl\u00edn-Beijing-Brasilia-Delhi-Johannesburgo. Con la mayor\u00eda de los pobres del mundo incluidos, ser\u00eda m\u00e1s dif\u00edcil seguir aplazando las transformaciones m\u00e1s profundas que se requieren para lograr una globalizaci\u00f3n equitativa que no destruya las condiciones de vida sobre el planeta.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;The old Washington Consensus is dead&#8221;, said the last week the British Prime Minister Gordon Brown before the opening of the president&#8217;s meeting, G-20 in London.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"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-26300","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","subcategory-globalization","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) -
