Resist and exist

The present study is an interdisciplinary ethical-political hermeneutic work carried out from some ethnographic records and memories about the Mexican popular insurgency that explain the situation of the vulnerable sectors of the population caused by the validity of cultural imperialism as a finished relation of subjection between individuals and societies that has surpassed all thinkable frontiers. In this way it is clarified that cultural imperialism is currently the ultimate refinement of the culture of war and systemic-social structural violence that agitates the revolutionary popular insurgency. Diverse meanings are studied on the concept of popular insurgency according to its current socio-cultural determinations and the causes and effects of the implicit crises in the marginalization and pauperization of the unarmed population and the processes of conscientization and political organization of popular resistance for the liberation and social transformation are exposed. This implies a clash between the liberal-imperialist model of "representative" democracy and the paradigm of a popular democracy for the end of social miseries and effective justice.
