La evidencia empírica reunida a lo largo de los estudios que se presentan en este libro confirma la existencia objetiva de mejoras innegables en materia económica y social con respecto al colapso 2001 – 2002. Ahora bien, este balance no es tan claro cuando se compara esta última década con algunos buenos momentos del periodo previo a la radicalización de las formas estructurales y el inicio del programa de convertibilidad. Sin duda, la “década” reciente ofrece diferentes lecturas que dependen del momento con el que se haga la comparación. Pero las controversias se disuelven cuando el análisis se vuelca sobre los comportamientos más estructurales del sistema productivo, el mercado de trabajo y la estratificación social. En tal sentido, la principal preocupación de los artículos que ofrece la obra no es describir la evolución de los indicadores tradicionales de bienestar sino hacer una evaluación de las estructuras, los procesos y los mecanismos socioeconómicos subyacentes a dichos resultados.

Two years can define the history of the world and of all people, and all of us who have overcome the covid-19 pandemic and all kinds of crises and obstacles have learned that. The United States of America was created on a common dream and overcoming a war for the defense of justice, and that path was started by Abraham Lincon as the first Republican and American President. The great obstacle that still prevents Americans from overcoming their bloodiest past and achieving true social justice is the obstacle of racism and its consequences. For a society with so many racial and cultural mixtures, racism only becomes the greatest of evils as a dark virus that is an embarrassment to the whole world. No intelligent person can openly defend racism with arguments that do not expose its manifest stupidity. But many American politicians who have defended in their working policies and throughout their careers racism and its oppressive machinery, always find a way to imprison the minds of the masses and camouflage themselves as friends of justice and peace. Peace, in a country and society as divided as America is because of the injustices and history of discrimination and oppression, is very much possible to repair the situation by taking steps in the right direction, and in that the Republicans, for example, have a lot of experience. Thank you for reading these lines. Javier Clemente Engonga, 06.07.2021
