Green Left: reflections from the municipal elections

By: Omar J. Candia Aguilar


Historically has been the color red has found matches left and center left-see the symbolism of the German Social Democratic Party, the Workers Party of Brazil, Mexican Labour Party, among others, without However, the Partido Social Force Descentralista converges to leftist political organizations and center-left has been used as a color that forms its political meaning to green. Beyond

irrelevant may be to use particular color on the command supports a political organization, we must reflect on the message we want to give those who have chosen to use a friendly color, that gives up the traditional post-I think-a message of democratic openness, freshness ideological , consensus and tolerance to their constituents.

One of the great weaknesses of the Peruvian left has been its high degree of ideological orthodoxy, which has been divided first between "Muscovites" and "Peking" to be subdivided, at some point in over a fortnight left parties and center-left.

We must remember that after the election as mayor of Lima in 1983 Alfonzo Lingán Barrantes, there was the possibility of convergence of parties and movements of left and center left with success or success at the polls, on the contrary, the segmentation of the left made them very representative, together political violence that led to terrorist movements, generated to the left in general are not representative and have little electoral role.

Force Descentralista Social Party led by Susana Villa provides an electoral phenomenon that in less than 15 days voceada moves to the candidate as the likely winner of the elections (Lourdes Flores). Probably, few voted by their ideological perspective, perhaps some did for the great charisma of its women leaders, or the context and political situation. Indeed, whatever the nature of the possible victory of Susana Villaran, it did fly their flags of justice and social inclusion and achieving a more equitable Lima, with an obvious option for the less fortunate.

Could it be, the formula used by Susana Villar, the left of the fresh and modern twenty-first century are reinventing themselves, they are rethinking their ideological values, which treat globalization, have rejected the theory of the end of history Fukuyama, the end of ideology " y que dentro de una estructura económica capitalista basada en la propiedad privada de los medios de producción aspiran a lograr una sociedad democrática que tenga como ejes centrales la defensa de la libertad, la igualdad de oportunidades, la superación de la pobreza, la protección de los más vulnerables y el ejercicio práctico de una moral solidaria, como lo viene afirmando el Partido Descentralista Fuerza Social.

Quizás, para las izquierdas más ortodoxas que propugnan la socialización de los medios de producción, la postura ideológica que representa Fuerza Social no sea más que una quimera ó una nueva forma de neoliberalismo que pretende reinventar el capitalismo para darle un nuevo aspecto human. In short, we believe that no one has the ultimate truth and that the ideological debate is certainly endless.
