El Gabo vuelve (+ Video)

García Márquez ya tiene 86 años y sus admiradores esperan lo peor. Pero el hombre que dio vida y locura a los Buendía está vivo, cuerdo y sigue andado por ahí, aunque ya no al ritmo frenético de sus años mozos. Se paseó en la mañana del lunes 30 de septiembre por un centro comercial de Ciudad México, aparentemente, para comprarse unos anteojos.

Revoluciones en democracia, democracias en revolución

Democracia: soberanía de la mayoría. Soberanía: poder máximo que no se somete a ningún otro. Contra estas definiciones la reacción ha tejido en todos los tiempos el infundio de que no es posible una revolución en democracia ni una democracia en revolución. Democracia sí, mientras no sea económica o social. Usted puede votar por el alcalde, pero no por el dueño del monopolio ni el magnate comunicacional. La mayoría puede decidir todo, salvo lo que la favorece. Si así lo hace, las fuerzas antidemocráticas ejercen la más brutal violencia en defensa de sus privilegios.
