To understand the history of Nicaragua is needed to contextualize what happened in nearby countries such as El Salvador, Cuba ... power in these countries had been under dictatorship and democracy, but the situation in Nicaragua was very different as it was always under a dictatorship, this is what made possible the revolution in Nicaragua lived 79 years. Augusto Cesar Sandino
and his army, made up of humble men, men and women of the village, decided to continue fighting against imperialism invasive, reaching the lost freedom, independence and social justice for this little Central American country that kept hope and stood firm against the dictatorship of Anastasio Somoza imposed under the command of American government.
year 1961, Carlos Fonseca founded the FSLN (Frente Sandinista de Liberación Nacional), the aim of which was to overthrow the Somoza dictatorship, a fact that occurred in 1979. On July 19, 1979 in Nicaragua began the revolution of the people, that Nicaragua was free and sovereign.
The economic embargo against Nicaragua by the Reagan administration caused the February 25, 1990 the Nicaraguan people voted for UNO (National Opposition Unió) and give him the victory, the entry of the one does not mean an economic improvement for all people, just began to favor the interests of the bourgeoisie, who claimed to be strongly the power companies from privatization. Violeta Chamorro's government continued to cut public expenditure, expenditure on education, health and social security.
The elections of October 26, 1996 gave victory to the right, which meant a strong impact of neoliberal structural adjustment policies over much of the population, as happened to
UNO government.
This revolution can not be seen as a failure but that left a mark that still exists in Nicaragua. Illiteracy fell close to 0% and had two awards from the UNESCO, the only country that has had two awards.
Currently, Nicaragua is a dramatic situation as thousands of children suffer sexual abuse, child exploitation, living on the street, consume toxic substances to escape from reality ... and repetition of this situation both within the family, and on the streets that follow the same patterns. That the authority figure is above the children and can mistreat, abuse of children without any punishment.
Stigma and lifestyle is so rooted in Nicaraguan culture that are in a vicious circle difficult to leave, if the State, NGOs, institutions, educators do not promote policies and programs aimed at changing the mindset and how to act in the community, the change will be very difficult.
Only education will change
"The Sandinista revolution is a revolution that captivated the world and still love today"
