IT'S NOT REALLY IMPORTANT

This time of turmoil in Ecuador reminds us that no candidate really represents the interests of the people.

They are too easy to intimidate, bribe or blackmail, or are in cahoots with others to make easy money.

Historically, they have consistently let down the people of Ecuador.

THE FIRST STEP FROM THE LOCAL IS TO BEGIN TO PRESSURE AND DEMAND THE PARISH, CANTONAL AND PROVINCIAL GOVERNMENTS TO IMPLEMENT AND EXECUTE PUBLIC POLICIES THAT HAVE THE OBJECTIVE OF ASSEMBLIES HAVING A TRUE VOTE AND VOTE IN DECISIONS.

CONVERTING THE current "authorities" into executors and spokespersons for the decisions of the citizen assemblies.

The disillusionment of the people with both neoliberalism and socialism is justified, since they do not offer us a hopeful prospect of solving the vast social and ecological crises that humanity now faces.

In fact, it is becoming increasingly clear that these systems, with their deep commitment to values such as industrialism, high technology, militarism, centralism, urbanization, and the state, have been fundamental.

Are there horizontal government models in Ecuador?

Yes. In Ecuador, the models of organization and citizen participation in assemblies are real and functional in different communes, parishes, and territories on the coast, highlands, and Amazonia.

For this reason, the next step is to put pressure on parish governments to implement and execute public policies to strengthen community and parish assemblies throughout the country.
