Experience of the political participation in Peru of the 2006

This is a reflection that it tries to discover and to delimit the problem of the participation in the process of construction of the democracy in our country. One of the aspects that call the attention in this process unlike previous years is the quality of the participation of the citizens in the urban zones. For it it is necessary to establish this participation in the context in which the country unlike other countries has an ample cultural diversity and reason why the participation spaces are pronounced according to that same cultural diversity. The acquisition of citizenship (2), in spite of the attempts of interculturalidad, shows a slow but indetenible process of homogenización of the human actions from the legal frame of personal and social interrelation like part of a globalizante economic system. This process of ciudadanización, has as model to exactly follow the established ideal forms by the valorativos system, its aspects and of joint that settles down by the same accessibility to the center of being able economic and government. This form simple to observe the things would try to recognize that in the measurement that we approached the cities we have greater citizen participation, one better form to accede to the justice and defense of our rights and greater knowledge on such. One but ample valorativa scale of the individual and social responsibility that at the same time would guide to us to relate the participation to the elementary value of having. But we must stop exactly to appreciate here that this panoramic Vista of the society is not the sufficiently clear one and would be excluding inasmuch as would not recognize the first actions pro citizenship of the Andean indigenous populations and of forest. And at the same time it tries to mask like a citizenship deficiency the quality of the citizen participation in the urban zones. In the same way as spaces of joint or groups settle down hinge to speak of the economic borders of the national society. Also it is necessary to observe that the establishment of these spaces is obtained by a mutual necessity of interrelation. But also of equal and congruentes elements of communication and interchange. The participativos spaces of the indigenous and native communities are reinforced and increased by their attitude of recognition and integration the country. The forms to establish its inclusion, from one territorializacion of its space economic, this but related to aspects of social and political interrelation to the groups to which they were subordinated in the last centuries, therefore of protection of its own lives. Therefore the protection of its habitat means and symbolizes the same, the defense of its own lives. It is important to mention that the styles of life, that could be suggested like aspects nondeveloped, negative for the individual rights, or that harm or discriminate against the members of a community they belong to happening historical I specify the regional premises or and that this in permanent process of reelaboration. The recognition of these aspects like the vindication of territorial rights, communal justice, the participation in the works and celebrations, is part of the same society to which they look for to integrate itself is by the density of the migrations and the same historical relation of his creation. This is been worth for the Andean zone and partially for the towns of the forest. But in the action to establish the property to a country, they establish the acceptance of the elements that materialize the relation among them and the rest of the country: government, justice, social location, forms of economic joint and the participation of the production and national wealth like part of that integration. That is to say, a tangible aspect of that individual and collective accepted joint and interiorizada are exactly the reivindicativa action of their economic forms, local development, communal government, llámese government, representatives and mechanisms of political participation. One of the forms to measure the participation and the quality of that participation as country is the moment of the elections or national consultations. The elections are a mechanism of political participation that respond to the necessity of materialization of a new government for the country. It is not my intensity to establish a list of elections but to reflect on two faces of the political participation of the citizens. We are not going to compare the citizen participation with the one of the Forties nonserious then serious. But we can compare it between years 2001 and 2006.En the year the 2001 participation in the elections was delimited by the perception of the population in reference to its institutions. The institutional credibility at national level was had lost reason why the elections also became a procedure to give legality the same ones. On the other hand also treatment to be observed the quality of this participation and for that reason take very into account the vulnerable groups, coverall, the participation of the Andean and native communities and that they had beside the point characteristic special: cultural diversity, not solved feelings of property from the state, illiteracy, discrimination, geographic isolation and absence of citizenship. He was then that simultaneously assumed the electoral process like an educative process (3). And although this educative process went at national level, this population had greater emphasis by its characteristics. The vision of joint by levels was assumed from a concentric point of development. The success I arrive and in the different elections until this year, one has improved remarkably the participation and the quality of the same one having surpassed some of the previous characteristics. The work of ONPE was a temporary work reason why that elevation of the quality partly must to the work of organizations nongovernmental some in strategic alliance with ONPE. Also at the level of the migrations then these were made in the time of the political violence towards the coast, but after passed the state of violence there was a return that I implement styles of life in the community learned in the city and with manifest acquisition of important citizen elements. This it has been an important profit. Then the personal valorativos scales have articulated and collective on the vision of community articulated to a community greater than it is the country and it is like an ideal. The participation in the Andean zone and of forest now has other aspects that they have to be worked to give sustainability the advanced thing. These aspects are an adapted registry of citizens and the distribution of suffrage tables. The permanence of I engage in a dialog between ONPE and the citizens like an educative space that allows to the fortification of the democracy and and its mechanisms of participation, and that at the same time, these actions can influence in sufficient form the daily life. Internalization processes. Single in this I engage in a dialog or educative space can exist the feedback necessary to sustain the sustainability of the democracy. Today a problem exists that we glimpsed from these years. We had been able to perceive like the quality of the participation in the urban zones was not the best one. He was very elementary reason why in the electoral processes one pronounced in absenteeism of voters to the educative spaces or members of table or the evasion of the members of table in the day of elections. And this has increased. It does not happen in the field. It happens in the city. We could think that the masificación of the negative information has created an adverse attitude to the participation in the elections, since it could have happened in the 2001. Also we could think that an absence by ignorance exists and is it that pronounces an action to throw the things by the hut and to leave the suffrage table. There are two elements that call the attention to me. The educative level of the members of these groups and the perception of citizenship of such. In the work of field made in the electoral processes, the capacitadores and coordinators in charge of the qualifications refer the absence of members of table of the people with greater accessibility to information and education. If for the farmers we have like reason of inasistencia the competition with its economic activities, like the cares of the sowings or the pasturing. This has required a adjustment of the electoral educative activities. In the city, the reason expressed by the members of table (lawyers, professors, doctors or technicians etc.), is that the qualification is not for them:? … the qualification is not for my, I I am a professional.
The qualifications are for the people without education…? (4) The characteristic of the group in mention on the educative level has to do with a set of absences in that same educative process where the acquisition of the rights was a subjective construction (5) in a conflict context that necessarily is economic and the social one. It is for that reason that single recognizes the rights unlike assuming the duties. That is the other element that composes the profile of the nonparticipation. The which could salary to excel in a society that in spite of the profits marginalizes them (6) and maintains in its speech an intermittent social property and the rejection opened to its past and therefore to its community. By this it is that we can see it in all the cities. The absence of property feelings happens by the presence of other excluding feelings car. I talk about to that it is not an empty space (7). This construction of the nonparticipation, we said also talks about an educative process. When we see the abandonment of the suffrage tables, we see single the end of iceberg. We see the people who openly express what they think and feel. Those that does not express it openly are many but and if we worsened the glance we found them in the daily life of the city. The property is axis of participation then one does not participate but it feels integrated but at the same time it has to do with the identity, the relation between individual identity and collective identity. An historical characteristic of the urban populations, is in Lima or the cities of the rear area, that is to say: .... I am Limean or I am andahuaylino or chachapoyano…. but my grandparents were German,….but my grandmother case with a Peruvian,….but the Perez came from Italy.! I am Peruvian but not as much as it stops ..... to be member of table! This form of individual identity is also a construction leaves from an educative process, segmented, excluding and fortified by the absence of the ample use of the different educative moments from the population. The elections, moment at which we delimited the problem is in fact daily and it is pronounced in all the areas of the life of the country. The impact which they cause the qualifications of ONPE in the citizens is strong, but at the same time, it is hoped by such citizen. The opposite manifestations or of autoexclusión need to be deconstruidas in an ample and daily process but taking advantage of the different educative spaces from the population. Decostruir, to construct requires to demystify the policy and to promote the informed and reflected participation. To clear in systematic form all those elements, recognized like negatives the construction of community and nation. To place in these spaces the ideas and feelings necessary to integrate themselves and to be part of us. To participate means to be part of something and for it the citizen education had to include from the fundamental elements of the person, that is to say, from the identity. To have like based value not this because an identity exists, or elaborated trimmed, partial against collective integration. The proposal to surpass this problem educative and is oriented specific groups. Even the urban ones. A diverse society requires of a diverse application of the programs. To fortify the advanced thing without neglecting no aspect of the groups that try themselves integrated. We requested participation to him to the population and that requires of our participation in this I engage in a dialog permanent and necessary to surpass the exclusions and autoexclusiones and from our diversity to be a democratic society.
Chachapoyas, Peru. 2006

Notes
[1] Specialistic of qualification and pursuit of the GFCE, of ONPE. The process of General Elections 2006, had the responsibility of the department of Amazon.

[2] Santos Anaya Martin? Sabes with that these speaking? He says: … The citizenship consists of a relation of inclusion of the citizens in as much individual, in a modern state nation. The state works like an impersonal plane that compares the citizens. These are equal before the state and its laws?

[3] In 2001 and 2002, the goals was the overcoming of the absenteeism as much in voters as in members of table. In the second group the created problem was by the tables conformed by rural voters, farmers, shepherds, natives of the forest, in its majority illiterate. The conceptualizamos like individuals in process to acquire the citizenship. And we considered tables you criticize, we looked for them, we enabled them and in spite of persistence of the risks that imply a table composed by illiterate, they responded to the challenge to assume the functions of members of table.

[4] To the asked being, a professor in the city of Bagua gave this answer. This type of answers has been listened to by our capacitador and coordinators time and time again. Although this demands a work of sensibilización, is a threat of inasistencia or abandonment of the 5

table [] Touraine, Alain. We will be able to live together? : … it is the construction of the subject by the search of the happiness that single can be born of the resetting of a experience of independent personal life that cannot nor wants to choose…?

[6] Portocarrero, Gonzalo. Creole faces of Badly, culture and transgression in the Peruvian society:? … are clear q this valuations are from the past colonial that this even too present, of a conflict that do not finish being solved and in whose root this the knotting between the colonial imposition and the Creole resistance…? The author does dedicates itself to explain the forms that explain the sustenance of the transgression to the order and system, are other interesting points for our subject but what would require in addition the extension to our text to collateral aspects of the subject.

[7] opportunities to accede to resources and formation of powers local surroundings to his activities economic (in relation to a national market that subordinates them), they have established historically forms to perceive the reality and in that sense forms of social ascent that they establish a slanted vision of the citizenship.

[8] Portocarrero, Gonzalo. Models of identity and senses of property in Peru and Bolivia. Although the author treats another subject, serves us to explain the subjectivity to us within the culture: … in effect, the subjectivity is organized by the culture in the measurement in which the social meanings allow a viable regulation of the impulsibilidad. That is to say, the culture finds restrictions in the real thing of the affective thing. One is not then about a omnipotente symbolic system and an absolutely maleable interioridad. They are felt social without impulsividad, are as unthinkable as a life if I put nor norms. As much the culture as the subjectivity must be conceived like complex and heterogenous realities, whose dynamics this crossed by the accomodation, the tension and the conflict.
