Peronologos, demanda en auge en el Atlántico Norte.




A political journalist friend of mine said, "If you want to understand Pope Francis, you have to understand Peronism".

Certainly, Argentina's press seem to want to paint him as a Peronist.

In other words, the age old answer to the question, “Is the Pope Catholic?” is, “Yes.”

But the answer to the question, “Is the Pope capitalist?” is, “Probably not.”

First, there’s the basic biographical particulars:
He’s a Jesuit from South America, Argentina in particular.

Both facts on their own represent intellectual and ideological milieus which are decidedly unconducive to creating appreciation for the virtues of the market system.
............

But one can be a fierce critic of the market system and still remain within orthodox Roman Catholicism.
........

“Is Bergoglio a progressive — a liberation theologist even? No.

He’s no third-world priest.

Does he criticize the International Monetary Fund, and neoliberalism? Yes.

Neo-liberalism is a term used by the left to describe the modern school of economics which attempts to move the world towards free-markets (classical liberalism) and away from various forms of central control.

But the Argentine political debate tends to take place between two statist camps: Peronism on the ‘right’ and Marxism on the left.

According to the Catholic Herald the former Cardinal’s ideological orientation is more from the anti-market right than from the anti-market left:

“Where do his political sympathies lie?

Certainly not on the Left.

Those who know him best would consider him on the moderate Right, close to that strand of popular Peronism which is hostile to liberal capitalism.

In the economic crisis of 2001-2002, when Argentina defaulted on its debt, people came out on to the streets and supermarkets were looted, Bergoglio was quick to denounce the neo-liberal banking system which had left Argentina with an unpayable debt.”

The liberal National Catholic Reporter says that “Bergoglio has supported the social justice ethos of Latin American Catholicism, including a robust defense of the poor…” and approvingly quotes him as saying,

“We live in the most unequal part of the world, which has grown the most yet reduced misery the least.

The unjust distribution of goods persists, creating a situation of social sin that cries out to Heaven and limits the possibilities of a fuller life for so many of our brothers.”

The seminar “The Universal Pope of a nationalist Church. At the roots of Catholicism in Argentina” organized by the Italian-Germanic Historical Institute of the Fondazione Bruno Kessler and scheduled for Wednesday April, 17 at 5:30 p.m. in via S. Croce in Trento will certainly arouse great interest.


"The election of Pope Francis - says researcher Claudio Ferlan from FBK’s  Italian-Germanic Historical Institute, who will introduce the meeting - has led to a natural interest in his personal history and that of the Church in Argentina, the country "at the end of the world " to which Jorge Mario Bergoglio made reference in his first greeting as Pontiff.

........................

With the specific intent to respond with the necessary competence to the curiosity aroused from the new papal election, the Italian-Germanic Historical Institute has organized a meeting, open to all interested parties, with Professor Loris Zanatta (University of Bologna), one of the leading experts on Latin American history and particularly on the Church in Argentina.


Author of numerous essays both in Italy and in Argentina, Zanatta has published, among others: Del Estado liberal a la Nación católica. Iglesia y ejército en los orígenes del peronismo. 1930-1943 (Buenos Aires 1996); Perón y el mito de la Nación católica. Iglesia y ejército en los orígenes del peronismo. 1943-1946 (Buenos Aires 1999); Historia de la Iglesia argentina. Desde de la Conquista hasta fines del siglo XX (with R. Di Stefano, Buenos Aires 2000); Il peronismo (Roma 2008); Breve Historia del peronismo clásico (Buenos Aires 2009); Eva Perón. Una biografia politica (Soveria Mannelli 2009). With Laterza he published Storia dell’America Latina contemporanea.


Traducción a porteño.

Desde ya, ser jesuita y latinoamericano, es un problema; pero que además sea argentino y sospechado de “cripto-peronista”, seria el ¡¡¡Acabose!!!


Google "Bergoglio Peronista" and many articles in Spanish will be retrieved.

Pope Francis was a Peronist.

Peronismo was a demagogic movement redistributing undeserved gifts to the shirtless descamisados.

Like Hugo Chavez today.

This fundamentally fascist movement set back Argentina by 70 years.

They still worship General Peron and Evita there, even though civil liberties were lost.

There is no good Peronista, I fear.


Mas allá de la vista Pastoral a Brasil; o de la mucho mas “parroquial”, posterior a las PASO y Generales, a nuestro país.

La clave estará en el nombramiento de los “nuevos” 15 Cardenales “Electores”, o sea menores de 80 años, que realizara a comienzos de 2014.

Mantener el satus quo de las “relaciones de fuerza” del Colegio Cardenalicio, o modificarlas “radicalmente”; sumando “periféricos” del Tercer Mundo, es lo que llena de zozobra a los Friendly Market y alegría a los Leonardo Boff y Hans Küng.

Si el Compañero Cardenal llega con sus “facultades intactas” hasta 2018, los “periféricos” lograrían la Mayoría en el próximo Conclave.

O sea, el “eurocentrismo” histórico de la Santa Madre, quedaría reducido a los Archivos del Vaticano.

Un Corresponsal del exterior me pregunto, apenas investido, si yo tenía alguna intuición sobre sus estrategias.

“Nestorización” fue mi respuesta, seguida de un “Bullshit” de mi interlocutor.

Un Enemigo, Ender Wiggins.

Soy tu Enemigo, el primero que has tenido que a sido mas listo que tú.

No hay más Maestros que el Enemigo, Ender Wiggins.

Nadie, salvo el Enemigo, te dirá lo que hará el Enemigo.

Nadie, salvo el Enemigo, te enseñara a destruir y conquistar.

Soy tu Enemigo a partir de ahora.

A partir de ahora soy tu Maestro.

El juego de Ender.
Orson Scott Card.

Así que; en la “maravillosa simetría” de la Globalización de la lucha por la Hegemonía, irrumpe un “tercero NO Incluido” Aristotélico y por ende NO “euro centrista”; “Ni uno, ni lo otro, sino todo lo contrario”.

El “Fin, o Culo, del Mundo”; como subversión del “Orden Natural de las Cosas”; de un “Occidente” que se debate entre Mercados o Dem(ocracia)agogia.
