draft de intento de conversación entre Costa Rica y África
Costa Rica
is very similar to Africa or the poorest parts of Asia in many senses: the
crooked streets with grass coming out of them, or not even streets at all in
the fang. Lots of spots with unused land and grass, and many poor tin houses
through entire mountains; millions and millions of “ranchos” or houses made of
trash. At the same time, the city is shiny with lights not even neon lights
necessarily, but actual concrete with crooked buildings with gray facades and
gray plus brown dirtiness even on public or private buildings still. Just like
Nasser, we had an actual hero: Pepe Figueres Ferrer. This is our
exceptionality, amongst similarities. Just like a hero from the ex-“Third World”,
Mr. José Figueres Ferrer liberated us from external influences. I agree, with
most Africans would agree, this is what we need the most for the continent.
Nasser did what was unbelievable at the time. It’s just a matter of Japan,
UK/US and Europe (the Triad): since UK was fading, and the US wasn’t, plus the
whole fiasco of European fascism bringing down completely the aspirations of
Europe, it is now advisable to tell that we would love to have an African ethos,
speaking only on my behalf. I mean the writers thinking and writing on how to
defend any ethnics who speaks about Africa, as their own. This is how Bretton
Woods was made, specially since the history of the UN is the diaspora´s
history.
We have to
go back to start a social democracy. We need to take care of necessities first,
instead of freedom. Supplies, medicines, food, houses, materials to build the
medicines, the food the houses, raw materials for the same: supplies,
medicines, food, houses. The similarity is also a big difference: we don’t have
our grandpas. I mean, obviously, colonialism. So once again: peacefully, please
let our statesman live, in order for them to try at last to finally fulfill the
basic: medicines, food, houses, supplies; material to build those, provide
those, offer those, and the raw materials, plus the freedom for their internal
markets and businesses which don’t act as offerers ever again, but actually
supply the whole peasant rural and urban network.
Contract farming even better than other schemes, but mixed all the time. So the market by itself, without too many changes ado, can actually work, specifically with optimum accumulation.
No one, not even merchants nor agricultural bosses nor anyone here, sees or enjoy their own money, just like them there too.
No one, not even merchants nor bosses, can actually "enjoy", but actually just cover for their needs.
In retrospective sense, similarities arise within Pan-African things and Costa Rica, but that's way too XX century, specially for you people there. Remembering that we once developed many electoral systems, and that was also a flaw, not for your own african merchants and agricultural business families, but for your whole continent. Believe me: is not better here than there, just like your families are telling you, is really, really, really not better at the advanced countries than there.
First step: social democracy.
Second step: outside foreign interferences, unless they're actually helpful.
Third step: open world markets for multinationals with the most absolute precondition to cure colonialism being: an actual contractual compromise to have as a minimum joint ventures, consorcios, franquicias, etc.
