With the celebration of the regional elections in Madrid and the tenth anniversary of the mobilizations that we later knew as 15-M. The face and the cross of a perspective of change and its frustration, at least today. It would not be bad if those of us on the left who welcomed 15-M with joy and hope and who have witnessed, desolate and disconcerted, the tremendous victory of the right in Madrid, reflect on it without restrictions. It is very possible that there are those who, in view of what happened, come to the conclusion that 15-M was an overly ambitious dream, an unrealizable utopia or a youthful riot without direction and without the possibility of consolidating. The truth is that from a first and superficial reading of what happened a decade later, one could certify the death of 15-M without having.
Left a lasting mark on Spanish society and without having achieved what they intended, and it is even possible to suspect that many young people who They were in the squares of Madrid in those days now they have voted to the right Some of the most significant figures or references have been left Belgium Mobile Number List out of the game for various reasons or have been swallowed up by the dynamics of the political establishment, which they said “does not represent us.” Pablo Iglesias's retirement and symbolic haircut could be the expression of that defeat, having failed to "assault the heavens." But if we look back at history a little, we find that many great social upheavals initially ended up failing and only over time did it become visible what they had really influenced.
And to show three very different examples. The French Revolution ended up devoured by its various factions and crushed by Napoleon, but decades later it was the wishbone that ended up overthrowing feudal societies and absolutist monarchies, paving the way for the slow but irreversible implementation of political rights and freedoms. The French May was defeated in a few weeks by the right grouped around General De Gaulle and the French army; However, many of its ideals gradually permeated democratic societies, being a factor of renewal and modernization in education, culture, personal relationships, the social presence of young people... etc. The movements for the vote, equality and liberation of women, initiated at the beginning of the 20th century, initially very minority and even the subject of public ridicule, decades later managed to convert their main demands into laws.
