Translation:

I share the vast majority of the criteria outlined by the author (Javier B. Soane C.). To excarvate in our historical conformation of country to understand our current economic, political and socio-cultural reality is an essential key to propose alternatives of solution. To understand that "renthism" is the expression of an idiosyncratic conformation of a passive, dependent being and, consequently, longing for a caudillo, I find a successful diagnosis. To understand that this formation begins in the process of conquest is also a success. The terna of the individium (biological dimension), the Self (psychological dimension), and the Person (sociological dimension), was a discovery that I thank and that I will use henceforth. There can be no republic without a Republican, there can be no democracy without citizens forged to exercise it, and this happens to stop forming passive citizens to transform us into participatory and protagonist citizens, understanding this utlimo in a different sense to the recently instrumentalized, and our structures and institutions (starting with education) must obey this foundation as if it were a vital mandate.

I have visited Venezuela as an expert in international organizations and I have followed their recent history. A story that presents itself outside and inside as a confrontation between good and bad (each decides who is the good or the bad). My impression was always that the problem was much deeper as the author explains. My (external but relatively expert) impression is that this article is a very good analysis.
The final part, that of the solutions, seems perfect to me, but I have a great doubt ... who puts the rattan on the cat?

Citizenship would be a good alternative to the caudilist messianism. And look out for family as a Society cell; better: individual with solidarity, freedom and love-no mask, whether inside or outside the traditional biological family.
