The tourism of Mexico: bankrupt industry

She explain figures: The unemployment of U. S. A. and the "improvement" of Mexicans
The tourism of Mexico: bankrupt industry
By: Carlos Damián July 25, 2011
Truths be half-way and lack of reality
México. - The executive of the tourism ministry, Gloria Guevara Manzo (GGM), assured that the low in the revenue of currencies by tourism in the first five months of the year it should be to the high unemployment of The States, and the decrease of 20.5% in the tourist scale of the tetra–month of 2011. She mention that the Mexicans are traveling abroad and that they spend money on trip and them greater economic resources, because the economy in Mexico "that is all right".

The strategy of the markets diversification
She explain that the Americans travel less “to the world” because of the economic situation of the country, of where originates more than 70% of the tourists that stay in Mexico, and they have still a high unemployment index, up of the 9 percent. Data of the tourism ministry indicate that the Americans that travel abroad it have been reduced of 40 million in 2008 to 34.5 million of 2010, that is to say 5.5 million stopping of traveling.

In the fall of the rate of the American tourists index that travel to Mexico "is compensated" with those of other nations as Russia with increases of 58.1%; Brazil, 40.9%, and China with increase of 32.8%. Furthermore they traveled originating from Peru, tourists with a rate of the 46.5 percent, of January to May of 2011.

Lack of reality
The reports of the Bank of Mexico (BdeM, in Spanish) on the collapse of the tourist activity in the country, GGM tested a partial interpretation and sweetened on the tourist situation. Upon explaining the decrease rate fell in unreality and half truth in the reality. Though would be improper to ignore the persistent economic difficulties in the neighboring country of the north have negative impact in the development of the tourist activity in Mexico. However the reached collapses do not reach to be defined by variable strictly economic: in this logic of GGM would be difficult to explain that the performance in the first five months may have been even worse that registered it in the same period of 2009.

If we recall the most difficult effects to the past economic crisis and when the tourist activity was severely affected by the epidemic of flue A/H1N1. Of be certain the inverse relationship established by Guevara between the unemployment level in The States and the income by tourism in Mexico, between 2009 and 2011 would have had to be observed a growth, and not precisely a fall, in the tourist activity, all time that in that period the rate of The States unemployment descended of 10 to 9.1%. The insistence of the Tourism Ministry in attributing only to the deterioration in that sector to economic factors puts on relief a resistance to admit that the indicated decrease gravitate other elements, beginning by the violence climate, the lack of safety and loss of the state to right in Mexico.

Minimize GGM wastage of currency income in tourism
The fear expressed by the foreigners is not only perceptual matter, as has insisted the federal system of Calderon: in this second campaign of the fear, it is sustained in it human destruction balances that they have let in the Mexican society the confrontations underway, and also in the figures on the citizen American that they have died of violent way in national territory, those which have been balanced by the State Department in the trip alerts that it has issued for its peasant. Actually in the fact that the functionary federal exclude of its valuations an element that occupies a preponderant place in the preoccupations of the potential travelers Mexico, by not to mention it the uncertainty and uneasiness that there has cultivated field in Mexican population is naturalness sign not acceptable in the exercise of the federal government.

The affirmations of GGM not only despises data provided by the National Geography Institute and Statistics (INEGI, in Spanish), in the sense in fact that the revenue of the families has been collapsed in more than 2 percent between 2008 and 2010, but results paradigmatic of the sloth of the federal government before the great space of the poverty that it has taken place in the six months of federal government current. In a nutshell, beyond the inconsistencies and the truth to half-way, concern it is that the pronouncements of GGM continue revealing inadmissible features of the Calderon’s government: his insensibility toward the economic and social phenomena that affect to the population and its trend to govern of backs to the reality.

El turismo de México: la industria fallida

Explica las cifras: El desempleo de E.U. y la “mejoría” de mexicanos
El turismo de México: la industria fallida
Por: Carlos Damián 25 de Julio, 2011
Verdades a medias y falta de realidad
México.- La titular de la secretaría de turismo, Gloria Guevara Manzo (GGM), aseguró que la baja en el ingreso de divisas por turismo en los primeros cinco meses del año se debe al alto desempleo de Estados Unidos, y el descenso de 20.5% en la balanza turística del tetramestre de 2011. Aduce que los mexicanos están viajando al extranjero y erogan mayores recursos, porque la economía en México “está bien”.

La estrategia de la diversificación de mercados
Explica que los estadounidenses viajan menos “al mundo” por la situación económica del mundo por la situación económica del país, de donde proviene más del 70% de los turistas que pernoctan en México, y ellos tienen todavía un alto índice de desempleo, arriba del 9 por ciento. Datos de la secretaría de turismo señalan que los estadounidenses que viajan al extranjero se ha reducido de 40 millones en 2008 a 34.5 millones de 2010, es decir 5.5 millones dejaron de viajar.
En la caída de la tasa del índice de turistas estadounidenses que viajan a México “se compensa” con las de otras naciones como Rusia con incrementos de 58.1%; Brasil, 40.9%, y China con alza de 32.8%. Además viajaron procedentes de Perú, turistas con una tasa del 46.5 por ciento, de enero a mayo de 2011.

Falta de realidad
Los informes del Banco de México (BdeM) sobre el desplome de la actividad turística en el país, GGM ensayó una interpretación parcial y edulcorada sobre la situación turística. Al explicar la tasa de descenso cayó en irrealidades y verdades a medias. Aunque sería inadecuado soslayar las persistentes dificultades económicas en el vecino país del norte tienen impacto negativo en el desarrollo de la actividad turística en México. Sin embargo los desplomes alcanzados no alcanzan a definirse por variables estrictamente económicas: en esta lógica de GGM sería difícil explicar que el desempeño en los primeros cinco meses haya sido incluso peor que el registrado en el mismo período de 2009.

Si recordamos los efectos más difíciles de la pasada crisis económica y cuando la actividad turística fue severamente afectada por la epidemia de influenza (mexicana) A/H1N1. De ser cierta la relación inversa establecida por Guevara entre el nivel de desempleo en Estados Unidos y los ingresos por turismo en México, entre 2009 y 2011 habría debido observarse un crecimiento, y no precisamente una caída, en la actividad turística, toda vez que en ese período la tasa de desempleo de Estados Unidos descendió de 10 a 9.1%. La insistencia de la Secretaría de Turismo en atribuir solamente al deterioro en ese sector a factores económicos pone en relieve una resistencia a admitir que el descenso señalado gravitan otros elementos, empezando por el clima de violencia, la falta de seguridad y quebranto del estado de derecho en México.

Minimiza GGM merma de ingresos de divisas en turismo
El miedo manifestado por los extranjeros no es sólo asunto de percepción, como ha insistido el sistema federal de Calderón: en esta segunda campaña del miedo, está sustentada en lo saldos de destrucción humana que han dejado en la sociedad mexicana las confrontaciones en curso, y también en las cifras sobre los ciudadanos estadounidenses que han muerto de manera violenta en territorio nacional, las cuales han sido ponderadas por el Departamento de Estado en las alertas de viajes que ha emitido para sus paisanos. Realmente el hecho de que la funcionaria federal excluya de sus valoraciones un elemento que ocupa un lugar preponderante en las preocupaciones de los viajeros potenciales a México, por no mencionar la zozobra y desasosiego que ha sembrado en la población mexicana es señal de desenfado no aceptable en el ejercicio del gobierno federal.

Las afirmaciones de GGM no sólo desprecia datos proporcionados por el Instituto Nacional de Geografía y Estadística (INEGI), en el sentido de que el ingreso de las familias se ha desplomado en más de 2 por ciento entre 2008 y 2010, sino resulta paradigmático de la indolencia del gobierno federal ante el ensanchamiento de la pobreza que ha tenido lugar en el actual sexenio. En resumen, más allá de las inconsistencias y las verdades a medias, lo preocupante es que los pronunciamientos de GGM siguen revelando rasgos inadmisibles del gobierno de Calderón: su insensibilidad hacia los fenómenos económicos y sociales que afectan a la población y su tendencia a gobernar de espaldas a la realidad.

The union freedom in Mexico

The union freedom in Mexico
The Work
By: Carlos Damian July 21, 2011
Jurisprudence of the SCJN
México. - The productive factors that any organization employs are the land, the capital and the work. The labor is the contribution, which makes the human resource to the goods production and of services. Generally the public organizations and derivatives classify to the labor in competent and not competent, and on this it will depending the remuneration level that will be made to this factor through salaries and wages payment.

The work factor has had throughout the economic history a great impact social as well as economic in the macroeconomic models that commonly they have been classified in endogenous and exogenous in function to the origin capital factor or technology. In spite of this have had in the last large decades theoretical and empirical advances in the designated human capital, this is in the work factor.

Union freedom
The Supreme Justice Court of the Nation (SCJN, in Spanish) has taken a decision of great importance for the future of the union freedom in our country (June, 20), upon modifying the jurisprudence 86 /200, that empowers to the Boards of Conciliation and Arbitration and to the Ministry of the Work and Social Provision to verify if the election procedure of a guideline is attached to the bylaws and to the Federal law of the Work.

The jurisprudence 86/200, dictation by the Second Room of the Great Court, granted from its birth, it makes 11 years, a legal excuse to the occupational authorities to justify its intervention in the life of the unions and to block to all the democratic court unions, wrong seen by the government and the chiefs. It has sufficed any omission, by small that it will be, to deny or condition the "toma de nota" necessary to accredit the legal personality of the union: the lack of a company, the mistake in a date, summons or record, the chiefs update, the absence of the company of the chief recognizing the occupational relationship, and a capricious interpretation the procedure, the foregoing form part of a wide catalogue that is used for this goal.

The importance of the work
Upon studying the behaviors of the companies and of the markets are micro-economic static models, the work factor is envisaged in the theory of the production with one and two variable input. An important concept that is derived from this analysis is the marginal productivity of the factor of the work that explicit the structural limits that will have an organization to contract working considering the individual contribution that make them to the production.
Jurisprudence of the SCJN
To combat the negative decision of the authority compels to the union to a long legal battle by the route of the protection -Habeas Corpus-, putting it against the wall, since requires of that simple “document" to operate. The Magistrate Hector Arturo Mercado, integrating of the third associated court, with date 3 of December of 2009, presented before the court a modification request of the jurisprudence 86/200. His petition was established in the free association principles guarantee by the fraction XVI of the article 123 constitutional, in various associations assumed by the SCJN and in the force of the Agreement 87 of the Organization 87 of the International Organization of the Work (IOW), of obligatory observation makes more than 60 years, emphasizing the point 2 of its article 3, that to the letter indicates: "The public authorities will have to be abstained of all intervention that will stall to limit this right or to hamper its legal exercise".

The Mercado Magistrate enriched its legal arguments with criteria of the Union Freedom Committee of the IOW, between other the one which to the letter is mention it: "403. - The record of the executive commissions of the organizations will have to be produced automatically after the notice of part of the union and it will have to be refutable to petition of the affiliates of the union in question only". The petitioner asserted that the faculty must be limited to the "what" had to make the requesting organization. And of not to make it thus, it would carry to the registering authority to abdicate of its obligation of be abstained of all intervention.
The phrase "toma de nota" in the unions
It was supported on the Court in function; that it was not existing legal basis for the intervention and that to authorize it without limits was meaning an injury to the freedom and autonomy of the unions. It has focused the attention of the chiefs and union leaders, but without doubt there are groups of entrepreneurs that are opposed to prevent “toma de nota” to the leader (Napoleon Gomez Urrutia) of the national union metallurgical miner (SNMMSRM); a change in the jurisprudence would impact this decision.

The ministers can not ignore that the "toma de nota” has been disqualified by the IOW and it is non-existent as such in democratic countries for who the intromission of the State in the life of the unions would be inadmissible. Either it can be ignored that the calls " registering authorities" are not impartial, fundamental attribute of any umpire; it is absurd and ridiculous deal obligated to request the "toma de nota" before an instance integrated by the representative of the own chief, of the executive branch and of a union leader generally little auspicious to democratic practices, who certainly survives thanks to the absence of these normative.

El Trabajo

La libertad sindical en México
El Trabajo
Por: Carlos Damián 21 de Julio, 2011
Jurisprudencia de la SCJN
México.- Los factores productivos que cualquier organización emplea son la tierra, el capital y el trabajo. La mano de obra es la aportación, que hace el recurso humano a la producción de bienes y de servicios. Generalmente las organizaciones públicas y derivadas clasifican a la mano de obra en capacitada y no capacitada, y de esto dependerá el nivel de remuneración que se hará a este factor a través del pago de sueldos y salarios.

El factor trabajo ha tenido a lo largo de la historia económica un gran impacto tanto social como económico en los modelos macroeconómicos que usualmente han sido clasificados en endógenos y exógenos en función al origen factor capital o tecnología. A pesar de esto hemos tenido en las últimas décadas grandes avances teóricos y empíricos en el denominado capital humano, esto es en el factor trabajo.

Libertad sindical
La Suprema Corte de Justicia de la Nación (SCJN) ha tomado una decisión de gran importancia para el futuro de la libertad sindical en nuestro país (junio, 20), al modificar la jurisprudencia 86/200, que faculta a las Juntas de Conciliación y Arbitraje y a la Secretaría del Trabajo y Previsión Social a verificar si el procedimiento de elección de una directiva se apega a los estatutos y a la ley Federal del Trabajo.

La jurisprudencia 86/200, dictada por la Segunda Sala del máximo Tribunal, otorgó desde su nacimiento, hace 11 años, una excusa legal a las autoridades laborales para justificar su intervención en la vida de los gremios y obstaculizar a aquéllos de corte democrático, mal vistos por el gobierno y los patrones. Ha bastado cualquier omisión, por intranscendente que sea, para negar o condicionar la “toma de nota” necesaria para acreditar la personalidad jurídica del sindicato: la falta de una firma, el error en una fecha, convocatoria o acta, la actualización de padrones, la ausencia de la firma del patrón reconociendo la relación laboral, y una caprichosa interpretación el procedimiento, lo anterior forma parte de un amplio catálogo que se usa para esta meta.

La importancia del trabajo
Al estudiar el comportamiento de las empresas y de los mercados son modelos estáticos microeconómicos, el factor trabajo está contemplado en la teoría de la producción con uno y dos insumos variables. Un concepto importante que se deriva de este análisis es la productividad marginal del factor del trabajo que explicita los límites estructurales que tendrá una organización para contratar trabajadores considerando la aportación individual que estos hacen a la producción.

Jurisprudencia de la SCJN
Combatir la decisión negativa de la autoridad obliga al sindicato a una larga batalla jurídica por la vía del amparo, colocándolo contra la pared, pues requiere de ese simple “documento” para funcionar. El magistrado Héctor Arturo Mercado, integrante del tercer tribunal colegiado, con fecha 3 de diciembre de 2009, presentó ante la corte una solicitud de modificación de la jurisprudencia 86/200. Su petición se fundó en los principios de libre asociación garantizados por la fracción XVI del artículo 123 constitucional, en diversas asociaciones asumidas por la SCJN y en la vigencia del Convenio 87 de la Organización 87 de la Organización Internacional del Trabajo (OIT), de observación obligatoria hace más de 60 años, destacando el punto 2 de su artículo 3, que a la letra señala: “Las autoridades públicas deberán abstenerse de toda intervención que tienda a limitar este derecho o a entorpecer su ejercicio legal”.

El magistrado Mercado, enriqueció sus argumentos legales con criterios del Comité de Libertad Sindical de la OIT, entre otros el que a la letra se cita: “403.- El registro de las comisiones directivas de las organizaciones deberá producirse automáticamente tras la notificación de parte del sindicato y sólo deberá ser impugnable a petición de los afiliados del sindicato en cuestión”. El peticionario afirmó que la facultad debe limitarse al “qué” debió hacer la organización solicitante. Y de no hacerlo así, llevaría a la autoridad registradora a abdicar de su obligación de abstenerse de toda intervención.

La “toma de nota” en los sindicatos
Se sostuvo en el pleno de la Corte; que no existía fundamento legal para la intervención y que autorizarla sin límites significaba una lesión a la libertad y autonomía de los sindicatos. Ha concitado la atención de los patrones y líderes sindicales, pero sin duda hay grupos de empresarios que se oponen para impedir la toma de nota al líder (Napoleón Gómez Urrutia) del sindicato nacional minero metalúrgico (SNMMSRM); un cambio en la jurisprudencia impactaría esta decisión.

Los ministros no pueden soslayar que la “toma de nota” ha sido descalificada por la OIT y es inexistente como tal en países democráticos para quienes la intromisión del Estado en la vida de los sindicatos sería inadmisible. Tampoco puede ignorarse que las llamadas “autoridades registradoras” no son imparciales, atributo fundamental de cualquier árbitro; es absurdo y ridículo verse obligado a solicitar la “toma de nota” ante una instancia integrada por el representante del propio patrón, del poder ejecutivo y de un líder sindical generalmente poco propicio a las prácticas democráticas, quien seguramente sobrevive gracias a la ausencia de éstas normativas.

The violence: message to the nation

The meaning of the death in the day-to-dayness
The violence: message to the nation
By: Carlos Damián July 25, 2011
The distrust in the Mexican justice
México. - The daily and massive death segregates a gloomy ranking to which we seem to accustom us. Chance not lacks the sick expectation in fact that the number of them: executed buried in drug-trafficker - graves, tortured, kidnapped increase so that the day acquires certain sense. In one of the many episodes that lives Mexico bled, it is now the shift of Monterrey by be a heavy industrial center by excellence and a great financial and commercial complex of all Mexico.
The event happened in a conceit saloon, call the bar Sabino Gordo. In this violence context against the organized crime and campaign of the fear of the plan of government, the tragedy seems be selective against the youths and that the Mexican population become accustomed to this form of governing fascist. For these precedents is made necessary to strengthen the civil movement that leadership the poet Javier Sicily, that awake consciences, questions to the government of right-side by this aggression to the people, the quota of dead is lifted and threat to the system. Monterrey, it is a society where the silence of the citizen has been considers the ferrous control of the chiefs’ corporative, and where the abuse seems daily thing by the route silence censorship of the plan of control of the state.

Sabino Gordo on Monterrey
We have been witnesses of the various defending organizations presence of the human rights have denounced the attempt suffered by Oralia Villaseñor Vazquez, one wife from 15 citizen disappeared by presumed elements from the Navy Ministry, in Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas, between the one and 23 of June, whose house was shot it with weapons of high power. The episode ties with a panorama in which are multiplied the accusations by intimidation actions and of reprisals committed by elements of the armed forces.
We’re mentioning some violent events: the priest Alejandro Solalinde indicated that members of the General office of the prosecutor of the Republic (PGR, in Spanish), they have been intimidating to kidnapping’s witnesses of the migrants occurred in the Medias Aguas, Veracruz, around the end of past June, and to this have of be added the various activist accusations of human rights in Juarez City, who have asserted be object of harassment on the part of Army.
The contrasts of this double message to the nation on the part of the municipalities and the states imitating to the federation, deciding to militarize the safety and us make it to know the figures of dead. In 2008 we register 105 victims; 112 in 2009; 620 in 2010, and more than 900 in the course of 2011. Furthermore it has been permitted the federal forces to check house by house, as if they would be electoral cabins, violating the state to right in Monterrey. Upon beginning the military operation, on the following day took place the massive assassination in the bar Sabino Gordo, 97 deaths.

Monterrey: financial complex center in Mexico
The Employer Center of Nuevo Leon - Coparmex altogether, they‘re in agreement with the military strategy. Its important paper against the delinquency is to direct them its arrows organized crime and from time to time displayed an in the principal local newspapers. But never they have been expressed against the owners of the casinos that they have proliferated as fungi, den of inequity, cabarets and establishments destined traffic and prostitution of persons, either against the banks, exchange houses, and stock exchange houses is whitened money originating from the drug traffic. Of all Mexico, Monterrey it is emphasized with a first place where we find casinos and caverns in the entire metropolitan zone. Here the underworld and the organized crime have the metropolitan zone of its property.
In this violence we have in fact that we find clear indicia that in this and other episodes, a purpose by silencing voices that daring them to denounce the abuses that involve to public and commissioned servants with safeguarding the state to right in national territory. These indicia aggravate a devastating panorama, labeled for lack of crimes clarification as the assignment by integrating of the Navy in Nuevo Laredo, of the Army in the case of the Otilio Cantu’s son, the students of the ITESM, and by the consequent lack of punishment for the responsible.

Message to the nation
It is alarming and serious the involvement of soldiers and marine in forced disappearance episodes and ‘men execution outside of the legality’, now with the risk situation in which are found them who denounce those crimes, is put on perspective the placement of the population, beginning by the relatives of the victims, before a double damage: the one which suffer with the loss from its familiar and they known, and the one which suffer when they have daring before the public opinion those violations.
The described circumstance configures, in the nearby environment of the victims of the violence, but also in the population, a terrible message: that the assassinations, the forced disappearances and as a rule the serious violations to the human rights that involve to public officials are events that they can be concealed and even acceptable in altars of the supreme end, and that affected them by these events can face the dilemma of persisting in its justice and clarification demands or to safeguard its own physical integrity.

La violencia: mensaje a la nación

La desconfianza en la justicia mexicana
México. - La muerte cotidiana y masiva segrega un ranking fúnebre al que parecemos acostumbrarnos. Acaso no falte la expectativa morbosa de que el número de ejecutados enterrados en narco-fosas, torturados, secuestrados aumente para que el día adquiera cierto sentido. En uno de los muchos episodios que vive México desangrado, es ahora el turno de Monterrey por ser un centro de industria pesada por excelencia y un gran complejo financiero y comercial de todo México.

El suceso aconteció en una cantina de postín, llamado el bar Sabino Gordo. En este contexto de violencia contra el crimen organizado y campaña del miedo del esquema de gobierno, la tragedia parece ser selectiva contra los jóvenes y que la población mexicana se acostumbre a esta forma de gobernar fascista. Por estos antecedentes se hace necesario fortalecer el movimiento civil que encabeza el poeta Javier Sicilia, que despierta conciencias, cuestiona al gobierno de derecha por este agresión al pueblo, la cuota de muertos se levanta y amenaza al sistema. Monterrey, es una sociedad donde el silencio del ciudadano se ha dado por el férreo control de los patrones, y donde el abuso parece cosa cotidiana por el silencio vía censura del esquema de control del estado.

Sabino Gordo en Monterrey
Hemos sido testigos de la presencia de diversos organismos defensores de los derechos humanos han denunciado el atentado sufrido por Oralia Villaseñor Vázquez, esposa de uno de los 15 ciudadanos desaparecidos por presuntos elementos de la Secretaría de Marina, en Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas, entre el uno y 23 de junio, cuya casa fue baleada con armas de alto poder. El episodio empata con un panorama en que se multiplican las denuncias por acciones de intimidación y de represalias cometidas por elementos de las fuerzas armadas.
Por citar algunos eventos violentos: el sacerdote Alejandro Solalinde señaló que miembros de la Procuraduría General de la República (PGR), han estado intimidando a testigos del secuestro de migrantes ocurrido en Medias Aguas, Veracruz, a finales de junio pasado, y a ello han de sumarse las acusaciones de diversos activistas de derechos humanos en Ciudad Juárez, quienes han afirmado ser objeto de hostigamiento por parte del Ejército.

Los contrastes de este doble mensaje a la nación por parte de los municipios y los estados imitando a la federación, decidiendo militarizar la seguridad y nos lo hacen saber las cifras de muertos. En 2008 registramos 105 víctimas; 112 en 2009; 620 en 2010, y más de 900 en el transcurso de 2011. Además se ha permitido a las fuerzas federales revisar casa por casa, como si fueran casillas electorales, violando el estado de derecho en Monterrey. Al iniciar el operativo militar, al día siguiente tuvo lugar el asesinato masivo en el bar Sabino Gordo, 97 muertes.

Monterrey: centro de complejo financiero en México
El Centro Patronal de Nuevo León y la Coparmex en conjunto, están de acuerdo con la estrategia militar. Su importante papel en contra de la delincuencia es el dirigir sus flechas al crimen organizado y de vez en cuando un desplegado en los principales periódicos locales. Pero nunca se han manifestado en contra de los propietarios de los casinos que han proliferado como hongos, antros, cabarets y establecimientos destinados al tráfico y prostitución de personas, tampoco en contra de los bancos, casas de cambio, y casas de bolsa donde se blanquea el dinero proveniente del narcotráfico. De todo México, Monterrey se destaca con un primer lugar donde usted encuentra casinos y antros en toda la zona metropolitana. Aquí el hampa y el crimen organizado tienen la zona metropolitana de su propiedad.
En esta violencia tenemos el hecho de que hay indicios claros que en este y otros episodios, un designio por silenciar voces que se atreven a denunciar los abusos que involucran a servidores públicos y encargados de salvaguardar el estado de derecho en territorio nacional. Estos indicios agravan un panorama devastador, marcado por la falta de esclarecimiento de crímenes como el cometido por integrantes de la Marina en Nuevo Laredo, del Ejército en el caso del hijo de Otilio Cantú, los estudiantes del Tecnológico, y por la consecuente falta de castigo para los responsables.

Mensaje a la nación
Es alarmante y grave el involucramiento de soldados y marinos en episodios de desapariciones forzadas y ‘ejecuciones extrajudiciales’, ahora con la situación de riesgo en que se encuentran quienes denuncian esos crímenes, se pone en perspectiva la colocación de la población en general, empezando por los deudos de las víctimas, ante un doble agravio: el que sufren con la pérdida de sus familiares y conocidos, y el que padecen cuando se atreven ante la opinión pública esos atropellos.
La circunstancia descrita configura, en el entorno cercano de las víctimas de la violencia, pero también en la población en general, un mensaje terrible: que los asesinatos, las desapariciones forzadas y en general las violaciones graves a los derechos humanos que involucran a funcionarios públicos son sucesos soslayables e incluso aceptables en aras del fin supremo, y que los afectados por estos sucesos pueden enfrentar la disyuntiva de persistir en sus demandas de justicia y esclarecimiento o salvaguardar su propia integridad física. “La guerra y la seguridad, es demasiado importante para dejársela a los generales”, frase de George Clemenceau.

The cultural knowledge of America
The indigenous knowledge
By: Carlos Damian July 20, 2011
The Creole seeds in America
México. - Europe with a history millenarian reached a development level in the different spaces of the knowledge and technological, that permitted carry out large companies, to discover and to conquer new continents in the world. With the conquest, arrived to America the diseases and the European science. Arrived to us a medieval science, therefore in America were given several lines of the European culture, an own of the medium age of Spain, and the other the Cosmo-vision of the ancient America inhabitants.

The inhabitants of this America’s land had a great knowledge in areas as botany, zoology, medicine and astronomy, but we find that this knowledge did not find echo in the European knowledge body. Therefore we could speak of the fact that the influence of the American pre-Hispanic knowledge was despised by the European culture. Upon including the astonishing knowledge that had of the local plants employment in the different diseases treatment was showing efficiency that it was recognized by several chroniclers.

The Creoles and the corn
In base to the accusation that they have been presented in the states, the dangers of the laws implemented in the states they are called of "Promotion and protection of the Creole corn as food patrimony". Their promoting has presented these state laws as a success to protect us of the seeds transgenic in our Mexican fields. However these laws in reality are the promoters of transgenic in our fields, but upon saying of these promoters these laws have "padlocks" to prevent the approval of the transgenic of the transnational as Monsanto. Something which is a lie.

In our country there is corruption of our authorities and it is there where we find legal holes so that are approved the transgenic of any kind. In this fragility we find as the federal laws are above the state and thus we see as "shattering" the supposed "padlocks". Furthermore these promoters do not explain as will be defended the patents on the rights of the peasants, the life of the consumers, and the natural rights of the farmers, the denominations of origin, and we observe as in reality are defended the mercantile rights of the transnational.

More laws to privatize seeds
Organization peasants and social Chilean in June 20, 2011 they presented arguments on the unconstitutionality of UPOV91 in a public hearing front to the Constitutional court of Chile, Camila Montecinos de Grain, with the rights of ‘it obtainer’, it indicated that: "restrict and prohibit the use, exchange and free access to one of the tools, fundamental and is not substituted of the agriculture, and with this vulnerary the right to working and enjoying the work’s fruits on the part of indigenous communities , men, women, peasant and farmers".

The first article, defines ‘it obtainer’ to who discovers a new variety. The varieties of cultivation are fruit of the human work; there is not a variety of cultivation that they may have emerged by it. Therefore. Who the "discover" is in reality having access to a foreign work. To register it as own though it will be a transnational company equals to a theft. (www.biodiversidadla.org).

Food patrimony of the native corn
In Mexico the contribution of the discovery of the corn for human consumption was spread in Spain with a multi-year lag. It is shown in this written that there was a long process so that in Europe is accepted its human consumption, as other foods that the Spanish carried to Europe. In the case of the pre-Hispanic science was not produced a fusion, or syncretism between the European science and the American indigenous knowledge. In this aspect we find that each who continued the road that more convinced to him. In this becoming must support the indigenous culture, and to the corn for conceal and preservation. Since there it bases part of our identity as Mexican.

In this context the initiative of law is presented in Oaxaca, Mexico as a retorts to the mechanisms of control against the peasant communities and of farmers in the country and furthermore introduces a perverse mechanism, as the need of "validity of the races" to prove its "genuineness". If we observe carefully we will see that the promoters and defending of the originating America seeds do not understand what purportedly they are defending.

In short must the corn does not exist without the indigenous communities that created it wisely to feed to their towns. As soon as the governments are creating laws to control to the indigenous, peasant and farmers, and therefore these laws are not destined so that the population has better nourishment, and they are not defending the human rights of the peasants.
