Difference Between Regular And Xl Condoms

Capitalism or the Crisis

is indisputable that we are facing a formidable challenge: Or continue blurring the design of life with our wrong way to understand the interrelationships of living beings on the planet or we continue with this insane idea that capitalism leads to predation without measure, I used to be that we, the accumulation of wealth in few hands which involves the abuse of resources Planet that are the heritage of humanity. Or we moved smartly to a new model where human beings have the opportunity to enjoy and make life worth in casaTierra.
If we were on a bus and within it a few thanks to its strength and power (capitalism) were left without food, without a seat to other passengers this would lead to chaos and this trip will surely end up in an accident.
This planet is limited in its resources and is generous is to hold a major human population as long as humans understand that we can not build our capitalist machine geometry and resources in few hands.
is more eloquent than those who advocate population control human are precisely those that are most prey to planeta.Casi say that bothers people though they account for the smooth achievement of the objectives of accumulation of wealth (huge contradiction)
The emerging countries who want to get in the car of capitalism put us in check at all because we would need more planets to develop and flourish a capitalist model, say Spain. Logically
growing population on a planet out of control even well-organized mind, it would collapse, but this is not the case today. Huge funds are appropriated
extensive land, monopolize agriculture, fisheries, water etc ... this is what makes things do not go in a direction that is not good either for species or for life.
It is clear that we must solve the problem ... the earth is patient and can start again from the broth and poisonous sulfur from which life began.
When fully understand who we are and where we begin to build a society with chances of survival.

First conference in international symposia organized by the Department of Sociology, Faculty of Science Economics and Business, University of Santiago de Compostela on 8 and 9 May 1980. Included in the book Culture and media subsidiaries , Editing Miguel Cancio, Edicios do Castro, A Coruña, 1982.


late Echoing what goes on within more mature cultural situations, has now reached Spain the issue of the crisis of the idea of \u200b\u200bprogress and revival of the literary-political premonition Orwell : 1984. Most analysts of the crisis of the idea of \u200b\u200bprogress dating back to the classic book by John Bury: The Idea of \u200b\u200bProgress. Sad but English culture. Their approaches to the forward-bourgeois politics of culture have historically been frustrated by powerful reactionary forces who were inside and when it appeared that was finally to reach the progressive sense of history, is that the bourgeoisie has closed and put on the doors of the temples of historical optimism legend: Closed due to death.
Spain has joined the concert or embarrassment of democratic states at the height of the crisis of neo-capitalism, hinted at in the late 60's and still prophesied lasting 15 years (the optimists) or 30 (the pessimistic). The crisis of neo-capitalism is reflected in the breakdown of the progressive growth of the profit rate and capacity of capitalist accumulation. These effects are attributed to the gains achieved by workers in developed capitalist countries since the collapse of the international division of labor force since the end of World War II. The struggle to reinstate capitalism "work discipline" by both the center and the periphery of the system. It is mission of this paper go to Iran to reflect the profound failure that affects the international division of labor, but to stay in Spain and see the cultural effects of the capitalist crisis. To cope with the crisis in their own metropolitan area, capitalism has turned to a relentless legal and cultural battle to intimidate the progressive forces. The legal battle resulting in a hardened subjective interpretation of each legal superstructure, used as a flexible brace each judiciary loose or tight depending on the needs of the ruling class. The cultural battle is applied to inoculate historical pessimism, even catastrophic, to intimidate the rising classes, and force them to stop if not go back to "hold" a certain estatuts of survival. This inoculation is exercised at all levels: from the film sharks that eat the naked girls, even the physiologists discovering the finitude of human brain cell, through the writers sunday raised even the possibility of a solar blackout. Historical pessimism wants to be used by the bourgeoisie to scare your opponents, keep the initiative and at the same time, it becomes also a flag on the left, including the Marxist left, to raise awareness about the criminality of a system that leads to disaster for that to keep its rate of return, the cumulative capacity.
The truth is that the cultural battle of merits raised in the bosom of the mother country or its provinces, and Spain is a province of this city, is an unequal battle in which organized pessimism rise from the apparatus of the bourgeoisie, the critical pessimism of the radical left and approaches, today, almost without limitation, the so-called established left, advocates an alternative model of development. Not quite sure whether an alternative model involves a new idea of \u200b\u200bprogress that has nothing to do with the rapid progress and apparently spontaneous advocated by capitalism or is limited to being a computer model of chaos. I think in the same characterization of the alternative model is the real characterization of a reformist or revolutionary vision of a socialist alternative to capitalist crisis.
This approach is a proposal abstract sublimated real situations operant in the capitalist system, but applying it to Spain had to take into account its historical uniqueness. In Spain, out of cultural protectionism, dictatorship, to enter the liberal at a time of acute crisis of the system. That crisis, until now, has been approached from a neo-liberal economic means to leave to chance the market any cultural initiative politically manage the outcomes of asphyxia in the market, taking into account the incompetence shown by the most conscientious and progressive social group to provide cultural alternatives to the capitalist supply. Not to be expected A CULTURAL CHARITY information in general or in particular, moved from the state because the state has the excuse of the crisis, the most pressing health care problems and the real purpose of existence not to provide any means of cultural production likely to be antagonistic.
is, in the field of culture experience the effects of a strategy and class system before the crisis, led to desmantalar or impossible to answer the historical antagonism, especially fearful response by the globalizing dimension of the crisis because it affects even the plausibility of the idea of \u200b\u200bprogress that capitalism has tried to involve the whole of society, beyond class consciousness. In a moment it's the old dilemma or socialism or barbarism is complemented by the or capitalism or survival and exemplified in the ruin of the whole value system of capitalist civilization defensive response, coercive, nihilistic, which is giving this system is a sufficient diagnosis of the extent of their disease.
Such defensiveness has been expressed at various levels, but the issue should be given priority level at which officials found high culture and mass media to launch a systematic campaign against Marxism, which is inconsistent or even policy with the installation of Marxism in Spain but with the rigor with which Marxism can diagnose the agony of the system and offer radical alternatives. Compared to Marxism opposes an unholy alliance of neo-liberal economics, neo-authoritarian policy-anarchist ilustraneo most appreciated if they offer the connotation of being ex-Marxists. The fight against Marxism is an international cross-cultural philosophy unifies neoliberal ideological thrust of the Trilateral Commission and the philosophy of nihilism aesthetes disenchanted conforming to the new spiritual reservoir of the West. This cultural operation not only occurs in the high specialized writing, increasingly devoted to philology that thought, but permeate the media and is apparently more mundane to instill in the popular classes did not pursue his ideology because no identity. Disidentify pursued the antagonist and offer the alternative of prefabricated mirror that returns the image of a survivor who has to acknowledge in the worst case, the forecast shown in the system of unemployment insurance. This operation
mixed cove levels of the fugitives, the shortcomings Marxists, even their old and overcoming , out of its ideology of "floats" unable to "roll" of the "modeln" with the action away with the mass media in Spain really are in the hands of State (Television) or MNCs (disk). The result of the action In tune so powerful and skilled in media is the cultural castration of the masses, because it prevents a conscious apprehension of the world around them and the transformative role that they deserve. The bourgeoisie is trying to hide in this way the impasse that is, renunciation of dialectical idea that every end is a beginning and is installed in the end as if the story had already ended. English
critical intelligence (and it included a large proportion of journalists and communications specialists) had made a hard fight against fascism in defense of democratic freedoms. Consecrated in the constitutional roles, those democratic freedoms become mere formal freedom when the ruling classes take hold of them by controlling the means of production. I do not produce any blush returning to resuscitate the ABC of Marxism to refocus and try to understand why the advent of constitutional democracy in Spain has not developed the creativity expected or has collapsed the walls of Jericho which compartments culture. You can say that today, as they say the day after the fall of Franco, the English critical intelligence has to consider that the real cultural creativity is stalled because the problem is not to recover the liberties democratic instruments, but wield the tools that enable these democratic freedoms and become agents of social change. Appears with all its useless exercise pilgrims to settle in the formal freedoms and try to populate the content of progress, hobbled by the current cultural organization, increasingly controlled by big capital and its political servants.
The crisis situation favors the proposal for a cultural revolution that bet on a change of mind, here and now, without awaiting the fatal condition of a change of class power. The cultural vacuum left by the bourgeois crisis must be filled by an alternative socialist mass culture, put the optimism of the rising classes pessimism descedentes class and rebuild the idea of \u200b\u200bprogress in the true sense of struggle against the limitations of man to higher levels of fullness.
cultural disenchantment of the bourgeoisie at the evidence of degree zero of its sense of development, there must be neither accepted nor corrected by the popular classes, but substituted its own hierarchy of values \u200b\u200bderived from their own objective and subjective needs.
international face of the lack of solidarity that characterizes a world capitalist system to survive is to raise the positive value of international solidarity. Front
individualism inoculated winners and survivors by bourgeois culture must provide the values \u200b\u200bof cooperation and solidarity developed among the popular classes. Front
irresponsible promotion of artificial needs should provide new targets for social life, among which are the primary nature conservation against capitalist predation.
schemes face interpersonal relationships based on ownership and productive or reproductive manipulation, provide the values \u200b\u200bof full disclosure responsible, values \u200b\u200bthat are culturally present in feminist demands and marginalized sexuality.
And regarding the identification between scientific progress and capitalist development oppose identity between scientific and personal and collective emancipation.
These proposals do not belong to the territory now distant utopia, but the territory under our feet, because they become sine qua non conditions to make social life possible. The builders of culture in Spain can not afford to live the experience of plunging into the cultural decadence of the bourgeoisie to access a higher stage. History has returned to play the trick of giving them a ticket for a train has already left for good.
First we must relentlessly diagnosing cultural situation that surrounds us: a culture worn, hopeless, tense, exhausted, which does not include the resource, even, the navel-gazing, a means of cultural production increasingly centralized, taken over by the state apparatus or by a private initiative that plays to the benefit or castellated resistance, a real lack of awareness about the situation that affects not only the Philistines, but large segments of the art criticism, both political and cultural as-a theoretical poverty instrumental to offer an alternative, derived mainly from the instrumental conception culture that has so far guided the conduct of political parties on the left, a provision excessively messianic priesthood follow state lucid to the actual dimensions of the problem. And while this diagnosis would be better for any situation and any residual social reality within the capitalist system in Spain that diagnosis is made worse because we come from nowhere to enter fascist abject poverty of democracy: the fear is, therefore, superior the defenders of the castle, impotence is more to the ones before him and the general framework of desolation is damaged because not even a correlation of forces, but a weak correlation.
Perhaps the harshness of open diagnostic prospects for finding a combative strategy. The needs of a progressive culture in Spain starting with the need for awareness of the working classes and that awareness is daily conform to the perceived progressive fracture in reality. The breakdown of the dialectic between need and satisfaction to this need and is now a conscious factor in adverse social conditions in the system. Begins around the new culture. Persuasive capacity of the cultural churches or priests will darken or takes refuge in a hidden language that ends up being simple verbal and not even serve as a deterrent liturgy. Continues around the new culture, forging a language that serves the rising classes to encode the world around him. The centralization imposed by the capitalist or by simple mechanical control appetite, collides with the failure of a passive conception of culture based on slavery against the issuer of the recipient. Burst cultural polycentrism serving the needs of identity and expression of the popular classes.
There are facts, conditions and provisions which, in this sense, and are present throughout the length and width of the peoples of Spain. No one ethnic or supernatural miracle, but as a result of material conditions common throughout the capitalist system. When analysts of bourgeois culture began to question the idea of \u200b\u200bprogress and went back to Bury as a prophet, tried to sell the idea of \u200b\u200bfiniteness of progress, not realizing that they waived the possibility of progress in another sense, without knowing or realizing that they wanted to sink or sink with the ship of capitalist civilization, giving the latest cultural favor of the eulogy. The sense of crisis that surrounds us all that we do or suffer culture or communication and information in Spain is not our crisis. It is the crisis of a system that claims it has attempted complicity to educate and give meaning to our lives and our history. An idiot is a human being who is thrown out the window when you say throw yourself out the window. But even more stupid is that which is thrown out the window without checking first if the window is real or simply drawn.
Even those who are motivated only by the internal logic of communication or culture must clearly see that this logic only continue dialectically linked to the sense of achievement linked to the hierarchy of values \u200b\u200bof survival and solidarity. The utopian nightmare of Orwell's humanity totalitarizada in 1984, can be reached on the strength of the fear of not survive, the lack of solidarity of every man for himself.
