In this discussion, we aim to bring together diverse voices to analyze and debate the landscape that seems to mark a shift in humanitarian action and peacebuilding, presenting new challenges and opportunities.
The announcement of the dismantling of USAID programs worldwide has raised alarm within the humanitarian system and its various actors.

Exacto, y cómo lo diría la gran colega @JimenaHurtado, todo depende también de las preferencias de quien toma decisiones para el diseño de política pública.
Las sociedades modernas tienden a otorgar autoridad a quienes se dedican a la "ciencia".
Por eso, en esencia, el rifirrafe es en torno a si los economistas merecen la autoridad política elevada que poseen para influir en el Estado, por encima de otras disciplinas.

El relato anti-woke es efectivo porque la superficialidad es un problema de época. Es funcional (a los machirulos), superficial (ideal para haraganes) y cómodo (para el status quo) pero no se basa en ninguna evidencia sólida. elestadista.com.ar/internaciona...
La efectividad del relato anti-woke
Los partidarios de Trump impusieron y controlaron el marco del debate. Incluso medios progresistas lo asumieron sin cuestionar su validez.
