As\u00ed las cosas, los colombianos debemos prepararnos para recibir una sobredosis de la ya aumentada cuota de debate pol\u00edtico que absorbemos cada d\u00eda.<\/p>\n<p>Pero el problema no es tanto la cantidad, es decir la sobredosis, sino la sustancia. A ver si me explico.<\/p>\n<p>La pol\u00edtica es un medio, un mecanismo para lograr cosas; cosas buenas, como la paz, el desarrollo, la justicia social o la prosperidad. Para que la pol\u00edtica consiga eso necesita movilizar a la gente, organizarla y ponerla a participar. Esa tarea les corresponde a los partidos pol\u00edticos, que son como puentes entre el ciudadano y el Estado. Ese es el modelo ideal. En la pr\u00e1ctica, sin embargo, las cosas son m\u00e1s dif\u00edciles. En muchos pa\u00edses los partidos son d\u00e9biles e incapaces, no sirven de puentes. Para remediar eso, a veces surgen grandes movimientos sociales liderados por gobernantes carism\u00e1ticos que logran organizar y movilizar a los ciudadanos. Este modelo sustituto, de l\u00edderes sin partidos, es el mismo que algunos denominan populista.<\/p>\n<p>En Colombia no tenemos ni el modelo ideal de democracia representativa, ni tampoco el modelo sustituto, de corte populista. A lo sumo contamos con pol\u00edticos carism\u00e1ticos \u2014como el presidente Uribe\u2014 pero que no est\u00e1n respaldados por un partido poderoso, ni tampoco por un gran movimiento social. Resultado: un debate pol\u00edtico que no se funda en la representaci\u00f3n de intereses, ni siquiera en la movilizaci\u00f3n popular, sino en la producci\u00f3n de hechos pol\u00edticos: compromisos, altercados, rupturas, insultos, declaraciones, reuniones, todo ello enmarcado en el lenguaje grandilocuente de la patria, el pueblo y progreso social.<\/p>\n<p>De esos hechos inducidos surgen una infinidad de titulares de prensa que mantienen al pa\u00eds en vilo, como siguiendo los cap\u00edtulos de una telenovela. Detr\u00e1s del voto no hay nada duradero, s\u00f3lo im\u00e1genes; los electores cambian de candidato como cambian de protagonista. Por eso tenemos m\u00e1s clientelas electorales que ciudadanos, m\u00e1s negocios que debates y m\u00e1s votaciones que democracia.<\/p>\n<p>Nada de esto es nuevo; en Colombia el debate pol\u00edtico siempre ha estado m\u00e1s o menos desconectado de la realidad social. El presidente Uribe conoce mejor que nadie esa volatilidad de la pol\u00edtica y por eso se la ha pasado siete a\u00f1os produciendo hechos pol\u00edticos, casi todos peleas y muchas de ellas deliberadamente casadas por \u00e9l con la oposici\u00f3n, con los jueces y con todo el que no le rinde pleites\u00eda.<\/p>\n<p> De esa pol\u00edtica insubstancial y farandulera consumiremos en abundancia en este \u00faltimo a\u00f1o de gobierno. Mientras tanto, los grandes problemas nacionales permanecer\u00e1n intactos: el narcotr\u00e1fico, la guerrilla, el ascenso de la mafia, la iniquidad social, la contrarreforma agraria, la corrupci\u00f3n y la falta de Estado de Derecho.<\/p>\n<p>Habr\u00e1 que tratar de escribir de estas y de otras cosas para evitar la sobredosis de pol\u00edtica que se nos viene.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After three years of permanent presidential debate due to re-election, we head towards Uribe&#8217;s last  year in office, which is nothing else than one full of presidential debate. <\/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-26397","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) -
