El ex-presidente busca proyectarse nuevamente como estadista frente al desgobierno de Jair Bolsonaro en relación a la pandemia de covid-19. Pero hay que ver cómo opera el antagonismo «petismo»/«antipetismo» que atraviesa a la sociedad brasileña. Y si el Partido de los Trabajadores logra recuperar a sectores de clase media y trabajadora que perdió en los últimos años. https://nuso.org/articulo/lula-pt-libertad-elecciones-bolsonaro/ Omar Vázquez Heredia ¿POR QUÉ EL PARTIDO COMUNISTA DE VENEZUELA SE ALEJA DE MADURO? Aliado histórico del proceso bolivariano, el Partido Comunista de Venezuela se viene alejando del régimen de Nicolás Maduro, al que incluso acusa hoy de autoritario. La crisis económica, la pérdida de derechos laborales y las persecuciones a dirigentes sociales, sumadas a presiones de las bases y cálculos políticos, explican las tensiones actuales. https://nuso.org/articulo/el-partido-comunista-de-venezuela-nicolas-maduro/ Ignacio González Bozzolasco EL NUEVO «MARZO» QUE AGITA PARAGUAY Una serie de manifestaciones contra la gestión de la pandemia de Covid-19 conmocionan la política paraguaya. Si durante la primera ola el país logró resultados sorprendentes, hoy se ve inmerso en la crisis sanitaria. Las manifestaciones, que apuntan al presidente Abdo Benítez, transcurren en un difícil momento para todo el país, en el que las cifras de contagio se disparan, la interna en el Partido Colorado se agita y el cansancio social se acumula. https://nuso.org/articulo/paraguay-protestas-abdo/ Manuel Canelas ELECCIONES REGIONALES EN BOLIVIA Un mapa para armar Las elecciones regionales en Bolivia confirman al Movimiento al Socialismo (MAS) como único partido con base territorial a escala nacional.

  • SYRIZA, Bloco and Podemos
    Transnational networking and cooperation among neo-reformist left parties in Southern Europe during the Eurozone crisis: SYRIZA, Bloco and Podemos Vladimir Bortun The thesis is submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of Portsmouth. March 2019 Abstract European parties to the left of social democracy have always lagged behind the main political families in terms of transnational cooperation at the level of the EU. However, the markedly transnational character of the Eurozone crisis and of the management of that crisis has arguably provided a uniquely propitious context for these parties to reduce that gap. This research project aims to establish whether they achieved that by focusing on three parties that were particularly prone to seeking an increase in their transnational cooperation: SYRIZA from Greece, Bloco de Esquerda from Portugal and Podemos from Spain. For these parties not only come from the member states most affected by the crisis, both economically and politically, but they also share several programmatic and strategic features favouring such an increase. By using a mix of document analysis, semi-structured interviews and non-participatory observation, the thesis discusses both the informal and formal transnational networking and cooperation among the three parties. This discussion reveals four key findings, with potentially useful insights for wider transnational party cooperation that are to be pursued in future research. Firstly, the transnational networking and cooperation among SYRIZA, Bloco and Podemos did increase at some point during the crisis, particularly around SYRIZA’s electoral victory in January 2015. Secondly, since the U-turn of that government in July 2015, SYRIZA’s relationship with both Bloco and Podemos has declined significantly, as reflected in their diverging views of the EU.

  • In Central Asia Seems to Be Connected Or Could Easily Be Connected with Its Efforts to Open up the Port of Gwadar
    Chinese Energy Policy in Central and South Asia Testimony of Professor Stephen J. Blank Strategic Studies Institute US Army War College Carlisle Barracks, PA 17013 Before the US-China Economiic and Security Review Commission, The Impact of China’s Economic and Security Intersts in Continental Asia on the United States May 20, 2009 Draft: not for citation or quotation without consent of the author The views expressed here do not represent those of the US Army, Defense Department, or the US Government China has exploited the current global economic crisis to intensify and accelerate its previous strategy for obtaining energy security and political influence abroad. This strategy’s tactics are quite straightforward. Exploiting other countries’ and firms’ distress, using its enormous cash reserves, and benefitting from the fact that its economy appears to be less adversely affected than others have been, China, through its oil companies CNOOC, CNPC, Petro China, SINOPEC, or through governmental agencies, is either lending afflicted firms and countries (often the same since we are dealing with state energy firms) money to obtain long-term contracts, access to energy, and other comodities at below market prices if possible, and at the current low market prices where necessary. However, these are not new tactics specially crafted for the current crisis. Rather they are the same tactics that China employed earlier. But now they have much greater effect given the current crisis and the availability of so many properties from countries and firms afflicted by it. China’s economic activities abroad during this crisis are also not tied to energy alone.
