Peregrinación de Luz del Día

Angebote / Angebote:

Far from being, in the author's humble misleading words, one of those "tales attributed to the fantasy of old women", and very close to becoming "almost a book on moral philosophy.almost a book on politics and mundaneness due to its observations" "The Pilgimage." is a masterpiece of political thought and observations upon its practice in the real Latin American world. Dated at London in 1871, "The Pilgrimage of Daylight, or Travels and Adventures of Truth in South America" is an overwhelming warning cry that today stands amazingly actual in view of today's Latin American political panorama. Being a reader of John Locke , David Hume, Alexis de Tocqueville and James Madison, it was Alberdi's clear mind that understood the freedom implied in the American Constitution: in his words "to declare freedom is not to constitute it. It is not a matter of declaring rights no one denies, but to constitute deeds no one practices". For years Alberdi's harshness was pointed out as a product of his bad temper, a resentful man resulting from his political margination -posibly a way of smearing a non compromising character-. However, seen under the light of the Argentine events after 1930, and more acutely after the so called "neoliberal" failure along all Latin America, the words Alberdi puts in the Truth's mouth (disguised as "Daylight") sound today as a chilling omen: "Latin America will stand free only after freeing herself from her liberators" If you have not done so already, this is a book you SHOULD read. More so, most probably the only way Latin America can get back to a social progress path is by making this book a mandatory reading by all its future leaders-to be.
