Esta semana entrevistamos a Alfredo Olmeda autor del ensayo "Del apoyo mutuo a la solidaridad neoliberal. ONG, movimientos sociales y ayuda en la sociedad contemporánea", publicado por la editorial La Neurosis o las Barricadas.
Hace ya mucho tiempo que la palabra solidaridad perdió su significado original, que evocaba el concepto de apoyo mutuo más tradicional en la lucha obrera, la fraternidad entre iguales, el carácter colectivo, la aspiración de transformación del entorno y huía de cualquier acción de carácter asistencialista. Por contra, con la implantación del neoliberalismo capitalista como ideología predominante la palabra solidaridad adquiere un nuevo significado, que lo vincula a acciones individuales y voluntarias, sin responsabilidad con la comunidad, sin análisis político transformador y con un marcado carácter asistencialista. Esa es la forma de la solidaridad en los tiempos del neoliberalismo.
La solidaridad neoliberal actual es sin rostros, sin seres humanos. Es una solidaridad que pretende ayudar a una humanidad abstracta. Puedes apadrinar a un niño en un suburbio de Bombay, pero no sabes cómo vive el niño que tienes puerta con puerta, o el que se sienta al lado de tu hijo en el cole. Puedes aportar unos eurillos a la reproducción del pingüino de la Antártida, pero asistes impasible ante el desahucio de tus vecinos.
Hemos vivido una lucha entre solidaridad obrera y solidaridad neoliberal. Con un desmantelamiento progresivo de la primera y una implantación firme y con muchos aliados de la segunda. El terrero está abonado por el desprestigio de sindicatos, partidos políticos, organizaciones revolucionarias y el fin de las ideologías lo que propicia que las ONG se conviertan en el nuevo cauce de participación en la sociedad y canalicen esa solidaridad profesionalizada bajo la ideología neoliberal.
