New York, Sep 19 (EFE/EPA).- Hundreds of mourners on Saturday gathered at vigils in New York for the progressive judge of the US Supreme Court Ruth Bader Ginsburg who died at the age of 87 from "complications" of the pancreatic cancer she suffered. Ginsburg had served on the Supreme Court for nearly three decades, arriving in 1993 as the second woman in history to serve on this court, after a career dedicated to feminist causes and civil rights.The health of the magistrate, due to her advanced age, has had the country in suspense, especially the progressive ranks, who feared that if Ginsburg left the Supreme Court, her replacement would be chosen by President Donald Trump. This would expand the existing conservative majority of the most important court in the country.The Supreme Court is made up of nine judges with life positions, currently five conservative and four progressive.

Bogota, Jan 18 (EFE).- Hugo Chávez, Lula da Silva, Evo Morales, Daniel Ortega, Rafael Correa and Fidel Castro are leaders in the history of Latin America who have much in common. They have inspired —and still inspire— thousands of people on the continent. They led what was called the so-called Pink Tide, a historical moment at the beginning of the 21st century where the left ruled in part of Latin America and imposed a new path to the future, moving away from the long shadow of the United States. For Will Grant, a renowned BBC's correspondent in Latin America since 2007, those years, from the rise to power of Chavez in 1999 to the death of Castro in 2016, a new way of doing politics with a strong populist component emerged and its legacy has inspired to leaders as distant and different as Jair Bolsonaro or Donald Trump. This is how Grant reveals it in a voluminous and entertaining book, which has been published in the United Kingdom by the publisher "Head of Zeus" and entitled "Populista! The Rise of Latin America's Twenty-first Century Strongman".SOUNDBITES OF WILL GRANT, BBC'S CORRESPONDENT IN LATIN AMERICA.
