El ensayo analiza discursivamente tres declaraciones del exvicepresidente García Linera en la coyuntura posreferéndum, donde se asume que la reelección del presidente Morales era indispensable, en tanto «sutura» del campo popular. Se argumenta en este ensayo que el imperativo de la reelección planteaba una confrontación antagónica sin resolución en el terreno de «la política”. En un escenario de heterogeneidad radical, la perspectiva de una dislocación extrema del «piso» institucional era vista como una circunstancia menor, subordinada al avance del «poder constituyente”. El ensayo busca pensar el rol de la institucionalidad en procesos que pugnan por una democracia radical.
This essay undertakes a discursive analysis of three statements made by former vice-president García Linera in the post-referendum juncture. There, it was assumed, under the indigenist populist theory, that the reelection of President Morales was indispensable as he “sutures” the popular field. In the present essay it is stated that the re-election project as a political imperative implied an antagonistic confrontation that could not be solved in the field of the “political”. A radical heterogeneity, with an extreme dislocation of the institutional “floor” was seen as a minor consideration, subordinated to the advance of the “constituent power”. This essay reflects about the role and value of the institutional order in processes where a struggle for radical democracy was at stake.
