NO HUMAN BEING IS ILLEGAL! more when the ratio of arrival to another country is to live on. _ _ _
Marcos Roitman Rosenmann. La Jornada
In the eighteenth century, Europe has an expansive orgy of cultural reason. Capitalism is making strides. The process of accumulation, which in the sixteenth century is starting off with the Aztecs and Incas ethnocide, among others, two centuries later settle their bases on African slavery. Sugar plantations in the Caribbean and production of snuff and cotton unite Africa, Asia and Latin English to an emerging world economy within a global order. With him, forging the concept of the West and created a geopolitical boundaries and colonial imperialist power. Is welcome to the forms of exploitation justified by the idea of \u200b\u200bprogress, utilitarianism and profit subsumed into the industrial revolution. In the twenty-first century, these values \u200b\u200bare left untouched in terms of technological changes and the form of appropriation of natural resources and workforce.
If we remember, the imperial centers did not hesitate to uproot the African peoples to be sold as commodities. In just one century (1680-1786), Britain transported more than two million slaves to the Antilles. Thus the monarchy saw his wealth, his wealth and business fortunes bourgeoisie. All benefited less Africans. The slave labor was considered part of the capital. Appraised market price as a commodity. Banks, insurance companies and shipping companies profited from higher than ivory or other products from overseas. The percentage in many cases reached 300 percent, and at risk during the voyage, the captain enjoyed the authority to dispose of human cargo. The insurance would cover the costs. It was a strategic calculation. Thus, who raped, kidnapped and chained to slaves who were traded price with trinkets and trash between the slave. A windfall. When they reached the port of Bristol, Glasgow or Liverpool, mutated in aristocrats, bourgeois bankers or. Some of them were considered benefactors of the poor and good Samaritans. The kings of sugar, cotton and snuff were aware of the origin of his wealth. Slave blood dripping from her pores. The same happened in Bourbon Spain and the Netherlands. But bringing slaves was bargain. Also reproduced in captivity.
Blackness in Europe and America are expanding as a result of slavery. It is part development of colonial capitalism. Africa is impoverished by the depletion of their main asset, the human. At the same time, appropriate their natural resources and population drain continues well into the nineteenth. No mention of illegal immigrants. Simply proceed to expropriation as a commodity. Today, Western Europe, change the strategy. Under the cost-benefit criterion considered more profitable than enslave the transnationals. Is agreed with the ruling classes sepoys about poverty wages for their workers and plunder natural resources in mining uranium, gold, diamonds, copper, etc.. Thus, support friendly governments prone to its dictates. Thus, in its borders, the civilized Western Europe creates a security cordon to repatriate undesirable. Laws against illegal immigrants.
The image of an expanding capitalism without exclusion is a myth by definition of capitalism. They are based on exploitation and violence. This explains the death of thousands of children every day from hunger and diseases caused deliberately by governments and companies that control monopoly patents on medicines and food. However, for millions of Africans, Latinos and Asians, now illegal immigrants, this myth is in force, is an option. Under this premise undertake migration to Western Europe, seeking the coveted prize: a job and living wage. Trip planning is millimeter. Trek strongest, the most outstanding and then follow the family. Failure is not an alternative. Therefore, not afraid of danger, daring. Want a future for his people and does not give up on their effort. Will this dream which takes advantage of the new traders and businessmen in the death of the emigrant. Mafias offer work permits, residence, fake passports and a smooth ride. The uninitiated are vilified. In the second World War, did the Jews, communists, homosexuals who wanted to flee Germany. They were duped. Jewelry and gave every penny in search of freedom and the promised day of leak Police expected Nazi concentration camps and gas chambers. Today, there is a contract of employment, is a makeshift raft, the raging sea, lack of food and almost certain death. On the other side, engaged families, the bitter tears of the future broken. Serve as data macabre. In the month of July 2008 have died at sea fifty people trying to reach the coast of Spain, looking for a job. You never see his goal accomplished. But those who get the target down to earth, they do escorted by armed Civil Guard, the Red Cross, the shelter, kidnapped the 18 months of legal and safe repatriation. The villain of the civilized governments, conservative or social, in an affluent society, prefer to overlap their shame under development assistance and keep stealing the raw materials. There is no place for blacks, Latinos and Asians, unless they are elite players. Yesterday Africans were a good blessing, Latin American Indians were used for the half and the parcel. Today, all are rejected under the label of illegal immigrants.
