Patriotic Alliance has completed its registration process at the national level, has named his party officials and even now has three candidates in the short months of existence as a presidential choice and not just as the provincial party to be. Patriotic Alliance is sold as the party of
, taking as one of its main founding ideal of unity of the diverse sectors that opposed the approval of the Central American Free Trade Agreement and the United States and seeks to become an option that will bring together, and, Vieste its formation, what appears is actually a conglomeration of personalities who led the struggle for
on the day of 2007. However, the question is whether it is sufficient that common position to a specific situation in order to build an articulate speech to propose a state model for Costa Rica.
Patriotic Alliance unites experienced rice trade union leaders and activists, we see from the political sectors dissent comes the latest release (Rolando Araya, Mariano Figueres, Oscar Campos, ...), which meets survivors of the traditional left (Manuel Mora Salas), with leaders who passed through several political parties as Celimo Guido (National Liberation Democratic Forces), Oscar Aguilar (PUSC, PAC) and Gerardo Trejos (Progress Party, Democratic Force, National Liberation) , with former candidate of Christian denominational parties (Sherman Thomas-Costa Rican Renovation-), plus many more.
That scenario makes input can not see this game as a new option for its top leaders come from years and years of walking in the national political scene ... On the contrary, what we perceive is a party that is emerging as the space for recycling figures whose previous handle is not functional at present given their positions on the FTA, and from there, to the neoliberal development model advocated by recent governments.
Ideologically, there is a profile Patriotic Alliance (how to conjugate the Social Christians, with social democracy, socialism, the evangelical Christian base, with quantum socialism, with everything else ...), so until now his proposal is built on a desire to be more from what you do not want to be. His proposal is more clear in what we do not want rather than how to build what you want.
That scenario makes the work to build a programmatic basis consistent much and pressing, and the challenge of appearing before the electorate as a viable option, with possibilities of growth, development project, and, most difficult, as an option to refresh the political scene is even greater .
Patriotic Alliance also shows how a party which advocates a large national coalition against the edge continuity, however, when the possibility of achieving that unity of such diverse political sectors is becoming less likely, the big question is, to where rather do a favor to the darling of the two brothers.
