Problem analysis
A new ghost haunts Latin America: encouraged by populism, the economic crisis, corruption, violence and eternal inequalities. The turbulent Latin American reality seems to bring a new conflict every day, but given the fragmentation and regional heterogeneity it is necessary to clarify the differences of each of the struggles so as not to fall into apocalyptic approaches. For dictatorial regimes associated with a constant and degrading violation of human rights, Venezuela and Nicaragua, join countries where the problems are centered on the economic, such as Argentina and Chile, on social struggles, such as Ecuador, on political instability, like Peru, or in insecurity and terrorist and social violence, like Colombia and Mexico. It has also been hit by drug trafficking, insecurity and corruption. Likewise, today presents serious dangers for the stability of the region, the presence of dictatorships such as the Cuban one, which has financed and organized extremist movements in several countries and has managed to destabilize democratically elected governments.
