Zarata mediatikoz beteriko garai nahasiotan, merkatu logiketatik urrun eta irakurleengandik gertu dagoen kazetaritza beharrezkoa dela uste baduzu, ARGIA bultzatzera animatu nahi zaitugu. Geroz eta gehiago gara, jarrai dezagun txikitik eragiten.

In the 16th century the Polish Nicholas Copernicus (1473-1543) clarified the fluctuations between the earth and the sun. Until then, in fourteen centuries, the theories of Ptolemy (cap. 15th century), the whole constellation was moving around the earth. Nicholas had been burned almost furiously because the earth revolved around the sun and not because the sun was spinning around the earth. Another year, on the occasion of the festivities of San Juan, in the solstice of this summer many old storms will be burned, giving rise to great flames. But in times not so old people were burned in the fire. Nicolas's new theory, according to Nicolas, admitted that it also had precedents. For example, the astronomer Aristarco of Samos, Greek from the 2nd century before our time. So it's an ancient idea of heliocentrism.

Today, everyone knows that the earth revolves around the sun, at the same time as the earth rotates, continuously turning around one axis. The image of a pawn that we were given in childhood to teach us the sun and how the earth works comes to mind. While Cizota himself rolls around the ground, he turns around in the shape of an ellipse. A good example. Even the Cypress has been a little twisted with its axis, which is what marks us the solstice and equinoxes of the sun in the land in which we live.

It would have been difficult for centuries before heliocentrism was raised, when it was said that the earth was the blueprint. Some Greek philosophers said that the Earth was spherical, not as we recognize it today, somewhat more complicated, but that we left it to another. Today, in the 21st century, there are still those who say that the earth is a plane. (If you want, there are items on the internet). However, in the days of Copernicus it would be difficult to understand how the demons men were, up or down, in the opposite hemisphere. Less bad than a century later came Isaac Newton with the Law of Gravitation. We are a little reassured!

"There's another centrism that we haven't beaten. I would say that it has increased, increased, widened: Anthropocentrism. Don't think this also has to do with the cosmos."

We got out of that geocentric view of the cosmos that we had for thousands of years, and we moved on to a heliocentric view, and the vision of the universe changed radically. Cosmology, and science in general, opened up our brains and there was a resurgence in the 16th and 17th centuries. Rebirth.

But there's another centrism that we haven't beaten. I would say that it has increased, increased, widened: Anthropocentrism. Don't believe it, this also has to do with the cosmos. When the human being has been placed on the earth as a base, point of view, manager, adapter…, the earth will continue to turn to the sun, but in every turn, year after year, it is poorer. To this anthropocentrism must be added androcentrism. The human being, and especially the male, the center of the cosmos.

When the man went from the Paleolithic to the Neolithic, about 12,000-10,000 years ago, he became sedentary. She started growing fields and raising livestock, and I kept hunting and picking fruits. There were major changes. Language, language was the most important thing, and the creation and use of roles. A new world emerged. If they were formerly families or clans, they now form all kinds of closely linked groups, including heads. The man of that time was mythical and through language he dealt very well with the world of imagination. Powerful mythical forces were soon sought to solve the problems that arose in that first developed mind.

A couple or three thousand years later, religions, theistic religions emerged. The process was not spontaneous. They were religions invented by man himself, and they expressed that it was the will of the gods, that they were mandates written by the gods, that the gods spoke to them in dreams, etc. It was good for man to be a custom-made god. Always in your favor and against the enemy. There was even the possibility of being a God to the chiefs, to the kings: Pharaohs in Egypt or Césares in Rome. The man, dissatisfied with his, fought for more and said: “Gora gu eta gutarrak, no one better than us, we are elected and the gods are on our side.” In this way, those who were around him easily became enemies. Look at history, the terrible empires: Persian, Babylonian, Egyptian, Greek, Roman, Spanish (including South America), desire for German empire (Nazis). What about revolutions? France, Russia. And what about the trade and financial revolutions? North America, China, Japan…

But the mythical stadium: globalization is not yet over. Behind this word are many concepts hidden. At least, I have a lot of questions to ask. Wasn't globalization what the great empires did, although some became richer than others? What did the European nations do with colonization? Isn't globalization today the same, but camouflaged? Do we not have the same level of consciousness today as 8,000 years ago, mythic? And finally, are we not yet, according to all appearances, immersed in an anthropomorphism? When will the human being come to another more mature consciousness? The new perspective may be developing, but the level of consciousness…?

By collective will

There are those who say that elections serve only to give legal status to political decisions. And there are not very many who think that way. Okay, but with that, a lot of things are said, among other things, that real power, power, is out of that game.
