Unifying of the dispersed forces and reckless signs of power
Those who are demanding a change in the country’s direction
are working to ensure that November’s elections are transparent
to prevent the specter of a new fraud from materializing.
They are also working for the greatest unity possible
to give voters clear and opposing choices.
Meanwhile, Daniel Ortega’s closest circle
sent several reckless messages last month
that suggest fear of transparency and unity
as well as a willingness to pay any price
for a third consecutive reelection.

Only human development produces economic development
Fernando Cardenal, who died at 82 on February 20,
was a lifelong and fervent educator.

over that of the GDP in its annual Human Development Index,
a project Father Cardenal praised.

El Salvador
Minimum wage history, struggles, maneuvers and proposals
This is the first time in El Salvador’s history

such diverse proposals to increase the minimum wage.
It speaks to the capacity of the current leftwing government
to stimulate widespread participation in public policy formulation.
Never before has there been a real debate on this issue.
In the past, the rightwing governments simply cut deals
among the upper echelons.

Francis: Pastor... and Head of State
What would a visit by the Bishop of Rome be like
if he only went as a pastor and no longer a Head of State
because that role had been handed over to a layperson?
Pastoral gestures mixed with politically correct expressions
by a foreign Head of State during Pope Francis’ visit to Mexico.
All his messages, marked by this double function,
now remain for reflection and discernment.

América Latina
Is “lactose” really a missing ingredient in Latin America’s leftist movement?
Are we witnessing the end of the cycle for
Latin America’s progressive governments
or, perhaps better said, their demise?
Might it be that, anti-imperialist rhetoric aside,
relying on extracting and exporting raw materials
and fully inserting their countries into the global market
has distanced them from the leftist movements
that gave them birth?
