Sugerencias y aportes al componente historia del área ciencias sociales
Abstract
La independencia en América latina, más que el feliz resultado de un hecho bélico o estrictamente militar, fue una conquista política y social que se venía gestando desde el momento mismo de la llegada de los españoles al continente. La lucha de resistencia encabezada por los pueblos originarios del Abya Yala es digna de todo mérito y reconocimiento por parte de las generaciones actuales y futuras. Sin embargo, este reconocimiento no puede llevarnos a obviar o a negar a otros actores destacados en el marco de la revolución independentista por el solo hecho de pertenecer a otros sectores o grupos sociales. El Libertador Simón Bolívar y el Gran Mariscal de Ayacucho derrotaron a España y liberaron medio continente, adicionalmente sus vidas están indisolublemente ligadas a Bolivia. El componente historia del Área Ciencias Sociales del diseño curricular para el nivel secundario, elaborado por el Ministerio de Educación, debe reflejar, de forma clara y contundente, la contribución de estos hombres y de estas mujeres en la construcción del Estado Plurinacional y del régimen de libertades que hoy disfrutamos los/as bolivianos/as.
Latin American independence was more than a fortunate wartime outcome: it was a political and social conquest that had gained momentum since the arrival of the Spanish forces on the continent. The resistance of the native people of Abya Ayala merits the recognition of the present and future generations; however, this recognition should not allow us to forget the other important protagonists of the revolution for independence solely because they concern other social groups. The Liberator Simon Bolivar and the Great Marshal of Ayacucho defeated Spain and liberated half the continent; moreover, their lives were inseparably connected with Bolivia. The historical component of Social Sciences in the curriculum for the secondary level of the Ministry of Education must clearly reflect the contribution of those women and men in the construction of our Plurinational State and the freedom we, as Bolivians, are enjoying today.
