Santa Cruz and Its Sedition
Power
and Autonomy in Bolivia
By
LUIS GOMEZ
Among other things, the question that
has echoed through my ears several times in the last few days
is: what is the difference between the Aymara people those
from the countryside and those who live in the city of El Alto
and the autonomists from the city of Santa Cruz? Aren't
both groups saying and demanding the same thing as many of the
movements in countries throughout Latin America autonomy
to make decisions, referendums to decide our future? And to be
honest, the answer is always the same: no, it is not the same
thing. But let's look at that answer in more detail.
Who exactly are we talking
about here? Because although the media frenzy they have created
is huge, actual identities have not been discussed. Let's go
first to the altiplano, the high plains, where the Aymara live.
They are people with robust bodies and dark skin, most of them
with a family income of between one and two dolllars per day
(fifty-eight percent of the households in Bolivia are living
under such conditions). They are part of the 63.05 percent of
the people in this country over the age of 15 who identify themselves
as indigenous (if we were to count the children under 15, the
proportion of indigenous people in this country would undoubtedly
grow). And they want something very simple: to govern the territory
they have inhabited for thousands of years without pressure from
the outside... they are convinced, as the mayor of Achacachi
(capital of the Aymara world), Eugenio Rojas, told me, that their
system of communal management of life (of goods and work) is
not just older, but better than that which is imposed by the
state.
The Aymara have risen up dozens
of times in the last 224 years to confront their oppressors:
from the rule of the Spanish crown, to that of the local white
elites, and up to the current rule of transnational corporations,
as happened with the Suez corporation in El Alto, the Aymara
city of nearly 800,000 people. Centuries of oppression and discrimination
(racial, social, economic) have made them rebellious and untrusting,
with good reason.
They are not racists, and I'll
put up Noah Friedsky as an example of that. Noah, a white "gringo,"
has passed entire afternoons and evenings drinking with the people
of El Alto (and once among the Aymara farmers of the countryside
as well), and as far as I know, he has never had problems. Neither
are they aggressive or exclusionary, and I can speak to that,
because if they were I would never have been able to write my
book about the insurrection of October 2003, which removed President
Sánchez de Lozada from power. It was their generosity
and patience that allowed this Mexican journalist to take their
words in his own hands. They have their problems, like everyone,
but that and nothing more.
And Santa Cruz? What can we
say about this city of 1,135,526 inhabitants? To begin, they
make up just under one sixth of the Bolivian population (as of
the latest census, Bolivia's population is 8,274,325). A great
number of them, perhaps half, are white: children of the Bolivian
criollo elite or the product of European immigration. Just look
at one of their leaders, Pro-Santa Cruz Civic Committee President
Rubén Costas:
http://www.eldeber.com.bo/20050122/santacruz_8.html
Does Costas look indigenous,
in this country full of indigenous people? No, and of course,
he isn't poor either... because in reality, in that city
which holds more than 400 beauty pageants per year, which generates
38 percent of Bolivia's taxes (La Paz, itself full of indigenous
people, generates 45 percent), which is home to the biggest domestic
companies and headquarters for the transnational gas and oil
corporations well, there's a lot of money moving around.
(Ah, and of course, it is well known that the drug cartels operate
there, too.) And what do they want? Autonomy. To govern their
own lands? Yes. Which lands? Ah, well, that depends, because
among their demands, the city of Santa Cruz wants to see more
of the benefits of gas exportation, and the department of Santa
Cruz (Bolivia is divided into departments as opposed to states
or provinces) has more gas than any other Bolivian department.
But the gas is not in the city, it's in the south, in a region
known as el Chaco, inhabited mostly by... indigenous people,
the Guaraní, who of course do not participate in the angry
demonstrations up in Santa Cruz. Would they have even been invited?
I doubt it...
Among other things, Santa Cruz
is home to the most extreme right-wing groups in Bolivia: the
Camba Nation and the Cruceñista Youth; both of them autonomist,
and, to be a bit more descriptive, fascist. It was those groups
that organized the aggression in Santa Cruz on October 16, 2003,
against the march of indigenous and poor farmers that had arrived
in the north of the department to demand Sánchez de Lozada's
resignation. They are the same people that have entire arsenals
stored in their haciendas to use to attack peasant-farmers and
the Landless Movement. (Did I mention that the land in Santa
Cruz, Bolivia's largest department, is concentrated in the hands
of just over 140 families?) They are the same people who, last
Friday, in a pro-autonomy march led by the rebel government,
began to raise their arms and salute the Führer they carry
within them, in their hearts...
It would be worth reading the
following essay by Mario Iván Paredes, from Santa Cruz,
to understand a little of the history and the racial and land
problems in Santa Cruz (and to show that in that city, not everyone
thinks the same way):
http://www.geocities.com/igualitarios/paredes/pare
des1.html
And now that we're trying to
get to know them, why not recall that in the municipal elections
of last December, Evo Morales' MAS party received many victories
in the department of Santa Cruz? One of them in the city itself,
where their candidate made it into the city council. So, not
all of the city's inhabitants are white, and some did vote for
a party made up of indigenous and peasant-farmers.
Finally, we have a few whites,
backed by their own economic power (and the transnational oil
companies), who are trying to maintain an exclusionary society.
(Some sources claim that Sánchez de Lozada actively supports
this sedition, and their were even rumors that he was in Santa
Cruz) Will they pull it off? Who knows...
What's certain is that the
military and the police have rejected their approach:
http://www.erbol.com.bo/24-01-2005ffaapolic%ECa.htm
That the indigenous and peasant-farmers
are doing what's necessary defend their country, Bolivia, against
those they have called "powerful groups that no one elected":
http://www.eldeber.com.bo/20050122/santacruz_10.html
http://www.erbol.com.bo/24-01-2005nacecoordinadora.htm
That even in El Alto they have
declared that they will not permit Santa Cruz's sedition:
http://www.elsemanaldigital.com
Man, even the businessmen of
La Paz have rejected their colleagues:
http://www.erbol.com.bo/24-01-2005empresariospace%F1os.htm
I should also mention that,
now that so many are talking about Rubén Costas' numbers
(and distorting them greatly), that in none of the photographs
of the demonstrations published in the Bolivian media do we see
ever many people: those of us who weren't there have no way of
knowing if we're talking about a thousand people, two thousand,
or more... although José Mirtenbaum, professor of the
Narco News School of Authentic Journalism and resident of Santa
Cruz, told me that they were not many.
The social movements and many
honest people in Bolivia are not confused about this. What is
at stake here is a national project, or rather, two. And that's
what I wanted to talk about in this post; I hope I've done so.
But, to give an example, is
it the same in Santa Cruz as in El Alto? No, no, no... some of
them want a nation that they have a right to, others want to
invent that right with dollars. Or to put it in more political
terms: while the indigenous city is trying to change forever
the current system of exploitation and misery, in the city of
the so-called "Cambas," they are fighting to maintain
it.
