Son quiz\u00e1s muchas cosas, pero creo que hay una m\u00e1s importante que todas y es la abundancia que aqu\u00ed tienen de servicio dom\u00e9stico: cocineras, lavanderas, choferes y jardineros cuidan de sus casas, de sus apartamentos y de ellos mismos, como si fueran nobles, esos mismos que hace tiempo se extinguieron en sus tierras natales.<\/p>\n<p>Y as\u00ed es, aqu\u00ed viven casi como nobles, que es como viven los ricos de Colombia.<\/p>\n<p>La enorme distancia entre pobres y ricos ha alimentado el esp\u00edritu nobiliario de las \u00e9lites locales y su convicci\u00f3n de que cuando pagan a los humildes por sus servicios, est\u00e1n haciendo un acto de caridad, m\u00e1s que cumpliendo con una obligaci\u00f3n legal. Ante la oferta casi incondicional de fuerza de trabajo \u2014de pobres\u2014, los ricos se sienten superiores.<\/p>\n<p>El gran privilegio de la nobleza era el ocio. En contra del castigo divino que ordenaba ganar el pan con el sudor de la frente, los nobles ni trabajaban, ni sudaban. Por eso fueron destronados por la burgues\u00eda y terminaron orgullosos y arruinados. Pero esa burgues\u00eda lleg\u00f3 muy tarde a Espa\u00f1a y no cal\u00f3 del todo. De ah\u00ed viene quiz\u00e1s esa reputaci\u00f3n de perezosos que tienen los espa\u00f1oles.<\/p>\n<p>Pero si all\u00e1 lleg\u00f3 tarde, aqu\u00ed no lleg\u00f3, o lleg\u00f3 a cuentagotas y muchas veces de manera distorsionada. Ni la burgues\u00eda antioque\u00f1a, que se dice tan trabajadora, es fiel reproductora de los valores burgueses. Los industriales de Medell\u00edn s\u00f3lo se sienten realizados el fin de semana cuando se van para la finca y le patronean al mayordomo. Lo mismo les pasa a los ganaderos antioque\u00f1os e incluso a los pol\u00edticos y a los comerciantes \u2014que tambi\u00e9n son ganaderos\u2014 cuando se van para la finca el viernes por la tarde. All\u00ed, despu\u00e9s del ajetreo semanal y en medio de la servidumbre, se sienten, por fin, en lo suyo.<\/p>\n<p>Pero ni siquiera los intelectuales o los acad\u00e9micos colombianos, que se supone son los m\u00e1s adaptados al mundo moderno, los m\u00e1s universales, los m\u00e1s globalizados, los m\u00e1s liberales, logran soslayar ese rezago nobiliario de la servidumbre. Nuestras universidades est\u00e1n llenas de secretarias, mensajeros y se\u00f1oras que sirven tintos, hacen mandados o sacan fotocopias. Qu\u00e9 contraste con las universidades gringas o europeas, en donde los profesores hacen todo eso sin ayuda de nadie y en cumplimiento estricto del principio \u201cdo it yourself\u201d. <\/p>\n<p>Pero la causa de nuestro gusto nobiliario por la servidumbre no es la pereza, como quiz\u00e1s tampoco lo es en el caso espa\u00f1ol. Es m\u00e1s bien nuestro gusto por gobernar, por mandar y por tener poder. Es verdad que a todo el mundo le gusta tener poder, pero a nosotros nos gusta, sobre todo, aquel poder que consiste en tener gente al lado que nos obedezca. Mientras los burgueses quieren ser poderosos haci\u00e9ndose ricos, nosotros queremos ser poderosos dando \u00f3rdenes.<\/p>\n<p>Por eso a los extranjeros les encanta Colombia, porque pueden ser poderosos de las dos maneras.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It has been surpirsing for me how foreigners get easily used to the cold tropic that is Bogota.<\/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-26325","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","subcategory-studying-the-protection-of-rigths","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) -
