TWO STATES IN WAR

The Pacific Bolivarian Revolution confronts unknown theoretical and practical problems. The first one, of high importance, is the substitution of the inherit Bourgeois State.

The classical authors foresee to take power with violence, what it was supposed to be the destruction of the Oligarch State, and on top of that rubble would be built the Revolutionary State.

A Revolution like ours, which gets to the government throughout pacific ways, must necessarily go through a phase where it has to work inside the Oligarchy State, with the laws, logic and habits.

In that conditions, How would the substitution of the inherit State be? Reality offers us the elements to understand the replacement process. Let us see.

Revolution requires a new State to specify its ideas, fulfill its goals and also to defense itself. Hence, the missions are created to cover society with healthcare, education, culture, and sport. The militia gives a new dimension to the defense of motherland, and unifies the civil with the military. It is the new State that merges from the demands of reality.

The old Capitalist State bumps into the State’s embryo that grows out of its guts. It is a manifestation of the ideological confrontation that every Revolution carries in its bosom.

This clash does not follow the boundaries of politics; the limits pointed out by the parties do not interpret them. It is necessary a new map which marks the behaviors face the collision of the States, so we will identify the ideological fields. Let’s see.

There are two main types of enemies of the new State:

The ones who directly question it: the “squalid” Capitalists sniffed the possibilities of Revolution and attacked the government with coups and oil sabotages.

The other enemies are inside Revolution: they are subtle and go unnoticed; they are the most dangerous. They put obstacles to the birth of a new State in multiple ways; they do it deliberately, the restoring idea leads them. They hinder the missions and sabotage the socializations. Some others confront the government with the same logic used to confront the Capitalist State, and ignore the new war situation between the two States.

Until here everything is easy to understand, but we are missing one of the most important obstacles: it is about the old State’s paradox, its intentions, legality and the support to the birth of a new State. Thus, the ones called to fund the new State are the Revolutionary members from the old State, and by doing so they are in a no man’s land. There is not legislation, they do not have institutions that regulate them; they are not born yet. Therefore, they try to judge the courageous acts through the foundation of the new, with the legislation that was constructed to prevent that birth, unaware that Revolution is exactly the outbreak of such legislation.

This situation of lack of comprehension, of not understanding that the resurgence of new is a war condition, that exploring the unknown lands and pretend to apply the old logic to the pioneers of this fight; is to kill the embryo.

With Chávez all, without him nothing!!
