La obra aborda el rol militar en los procesos de 1990, 1994 y 1996<\/h2>\n

Santo Domingo, Rep\u00fablica Dominicana. \u2014 En un acto que reuni\u00f3 a acad\u00e9micos, pol\u00edticos y figuras del \u00e1mbito social, el general retirado Jos\u00e9 Miguel Soto Jim\u00e9nez present\u00f3 su m\u00e1s reciente libro \u201cLos muchachos de la democracia\u201d en la Universidad del Caribe, en una jornada marcada por la reflexi\u00f3n hist\u00f3rica y el reconocimiento a momentos clave de la vida institucional dominicana.<\/p>\n

La obra se centra en las tensiones pol\u00edticas y electorales registradas en los a\u00f1os 1990, 1994 y 1996, episodios que pusieron a prueba la estabilidad democr\u00e1tica del pa\u00eds. A trav\u00e9s de sus p\u00e1ginas, Soto Jim\u00e9nez reconstruye el papel desempe\u00f1ado por un grupo de oficiales militares que, seg\u00fan sostiene, actuaron con firmeza en defensa del orden constitucional en medio de escenarios de alta incertidumbre.<\/p>\n

La presentaci\u00f3n del libro estuvo a cargo del historiador Roberto Cass\u00e1, quien valor\u00f3 el texto como un testimonio relevante para comprender la din\u00e1mica pol\u00edtica de la \u00e9poca. Destac\u00f3, adem\u00e1s, el esfuerzo del autor por documentar hechos que, aunque recientes, requieren ser analizados con rigor para fortalecer la memoria colectiva.<\/p>\n

El pr\u00f3logo fue elaborado por los intelectuales C\u00e1ndido Ger\u00f3n y Tony Raful, quienes aportan una lectura contextual del contenido, subrayando la importancia de revisar estos procesos desde m\u00faltiples perspectivas.<\/p>\n

Durante la actividad se hizo \u00e9nfasis en el rol de los denominados \u201cmuchachos de la democracia\u201d, un grupo de oficiales entre los que figuran Manuel Ernesto Polanco Salvador, Gonz\u00e1lez Ram\u00edrez, Zorrilla Ozuna y Uribe Peguero, entre otros. De acuerdo con el autor, estos militares asumieron decisiones clave en momentos de tensi\u00f3n institucional, orientadas a evitar rupturas en el orden democr\u00e1tico.<\/p>\n

El propio Soto Jim\u00e9nez record\u00f3 que, en su condici\u00f3n de coronel en ese entonces, particip\u00f3 activamente en la coordinaci\u00f3n de acciones junto a sus compa\u00f1eros, en un contexto donde el pa\u00eds enfrentaba presiones pol\u00edticas, sociales y econ\u00f3micas que amenazaban con escalar en una crisis mayor.<\/p>\n

El libro tambi\u00e9n revisa el escenario pol\u00edtico de la \u00e9poca, marcado por el liderazgo de Joaqu\u00edn Balaguer y la irrupci\u00f3n de figuras como Jos\u00e9 Francisco Pe\u00f1a G\u00f3mez e Hip\u00f3lito Mej\u00eda, cuyas propuestas contribuyeron al debate sobre la transparencia electoral y el fortalecimiento institucional.<\/p>\n

Los asistentes coincidieron en que la publicaci\u00f3n constituye un aporte significativo a la historiograf\u00eda dominicana, al ofrecer una mirada desde dentro sobre acontecimientos que definieron el rumbo pol\u00edtico del pa\u00eds en la \u00faltima d\u00e9cada del siglo XX.<\/p>\n

La puesta en circulaci\u00f3n concluy\u00f3 en un ambiente de reconocimiento al autor, con llamados a preservar la memoria hist\u00f3rica y a continuar promoviendo los valores democr\u00e1ticos como base del desarrollo nacional.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
