HAMBURGER FERNANDEZ, ÁLVARO ANDRÉS. XXI CENTURY SOCIALISM IN LATIN AMERICA: CHARACTERISTICS, DEVELOPMENTS AND CHALLENGES. rev.relac.int.estrateg.segur. [online]. 2014, vol.9, n.1, pp.131-154. ISSN 1909-3063.
What is socialism? What is "socialism of the XXI century"? What are the main characteristics of this "type" of socialism? What has been its evolution in Latin America and what challenges must face in the future? These are some of the questions addressed in this article. It aims to answer these questions to account for the possibility, feasibility, existence and conditions that said socialism should stand for when facing a necessary transformation of the social, political, economic and cultural life of America. The starting point of the article coincides with the line of research that for several years has been carrying the Argentine Atilio Boron (2000 and 2008), which can be synthesized as "non-viability of capitalism as a mode of production leading to the development of Latin America" (2008:17). Hence, the so called "XXI century socialism" emerges as the most expeditious and direct way to change course and definitely lead our people towards an integral development; ie social, human and economic.
