| Summary: |
The lessons of Western political history and, more particularly, of Latin America seem to show that political events are inevitably ruled by war, power, exclusion and, of course, by the emergence of numerous figures of authority armed with Violence, who appear with greater or less frequency and intensity in times of institutional crisis under the promise of safeguarding order and protecting the lives of citizens. In this sense, the repression and expansion of violence by the sovereign authority, like the Hobbesian state of nature, constitutes a permanent threat for those who suffer it, since the logic of authority consists in the increase of Means of power, abuse, destruction and, consequently, an incessant configuration of enemies, oppositions and struggles. The ignorance of these effects in the modern discourse with respect to the law and human life implies, consequently, to enter in the logic of the war and to remain in her until the annihilation of ample masses of human beings, since it is demanded, either by ignorance , Or for convenience, the unlimited and indefinite presence of the State apparatus and sovereign authority, who must combat enemies who are increasingly less familiar, everyday and substitutable, making use of the life and body of the citizens themselves. In this way, war and order carry to the extreme the ever more degraded and unusual violence, sacrificing freedoms and numerous human lives under death, exclusion, abandonment. |
