| Sumario: | This is an article about the Nicaraguan conflict, beyond what appears as a spontaneous movement that break into the middle of economic and social normality. Analyze some internal causes and emphasize external pressures. In this article we are interested in highlighting characteristic structural aspects of the history of Nicaragua articulated to the Central American region, and the pressures of the international environment, in particular of the United States, which is determined to recover the lost hegemony after the failure of the Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA) project, and the emergence of the “progressive governments”. The hypothesis that underlies this contribution is that the conflict that began in the spring of 2018 is a symptom of the contradictions accumulated from the unfulfilled promises of the triumph of the Sandinista revolution of 1979 and the way of governing during the last eleven years of the administration of Daniel Ortega. |
