Riz Khan - Evo Morales vs US - 24 July Part 2
Enviado por: AlJazeeraEnglish
Descripción del video:
Ever since he won the Bolivian presidency in 2005, Evo Morales has been a thorn in America's side. He once said, "The worst enemy of humanity is U.S. capitalism." Originally a coca farmer himself, he has tried to block U.S. intervention in eradicating coca farming in his country. In 2006, he partially nationalized Bolivia's oil and gas industry. Last month both countries recalled their ambassadors -- and tensions remain high between La Paz and Washington.

Imperialism: colonies, protectorates.
Neo-Imperialism: Sponsorship of dictatorial regimes:
Hegemony: economic and culture domination.
Ergo, THERE ARE NO EMPIRES. The author is mixing up the terminology in order to maximize an emotional response. The ambassador said that American influence and companies are waning in Bolivia, so how CAN there be imperialism? THAT is what I am talking about. It's all about MONEY, period.
Right now the CIA, are giving money to the opposition, to overtrown Evo Morales.
The mayority of the people in Bolivia in Santa Cruz, Pando, Beni, Cochabamba, Tarija supports Evo morales, The opposition lie every time to the international news channels, saying that the half of the country support morales, that's a lie. The Mayority supports Evo Morales.
America is a continent named by the Spanish conquestors. Bolivia is part of AMERICA, so we are Americans, like Argentinians, Brazilians, Canadian, also Statetians from United States are Americans, like Us. So if you refer to united States, don't use AMERICA. BECAUSE America start in Argentina, and ends in CANADA.
Ambassador Aparicio has an interesting way to understand the current situation. He wasn't ambassador only in Gonzalo Sanchez de Lozada governement, he was also in Carlos Mesa's government and in Rodrigo Veltzé's government.
Imperialism has two meanings, one describing an action and the other describing an attitude.
Most commonly it is understood in relation to Empire building, as the expansion of a nation's authority by territorial conquest establishing economic and political powers in other territories or nations, and when such encompasses non-contiguous "colonies" or "protectorates" then the term also subsumes Colonialism.
In its second meaning the term describes the imperialistic attitude of superiority, subordination and dominion over foreign people— a chauvinism and comportment relegating foreign people to a lesser social and or political status.
The US still sponsor a slew of dictatorship around the world, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan come to mind. So by your own definition, we are a Neo-Imperialistic power.
Who said imperialism, neo-imperialism and hegemony are mutually exclusive. We can be all three.
