Os Aymara: construindo a revolução índia no ciberespaço.

Abstract

In the beginning of a new century it is important to point out that for the first time an descendent of the aymara ethny - Evo Morales - surprises the world by reaching the presidency of Bolivia. However, by taking a closer look at the reality o f that country over the last years o f the XX century and over the beginning o f the XXI century, it is possible to find out a long path of resistance of the ayamaras to the implementation of a new nation based on the occidental way, under the impact t of neoliberalisin and economic globalization that increased income concentration and made the conditions of life of the Indian communities more difficult. The mentioned process occurred throughout explicit conflicts with the national army and with many forms o f everyday resistance that allowed feeding a dream of centuries: the reconstitution o f the Qollasuyu, aymara golden piece of the ancient pre-lncaic world. In the context of a new century, the development of a society where fast and disseminated information became vital; this process made the aymara recover the concept of Indian Revolution and turn the everyday resistance into a true everyday revolution, breaking up with the limitations of the union and political partidary participation and basing itself on the Marxist tradition to build their own ideology: the katarism. By searching in the past for the support to ways of action in the present, it is possible to find out that the katarism breaks up with the traditional frontiers between past, present and future, embodying them in its proposal of revolution and using all available means - including the internet - to prepare the future that already could be found latent in the past and now is been elaborated. The revolution proposed consists in a constant work to create an aymara society in the future. Because o f the use of the cyberspace, they open breaches o f resistance and construction of their identities, what allows us to catch a glimpse of action strategies and, also, of this world that is trying to return to make itself new.
