Book excerpt: Uno de los retos de las democracias liberales es la construcción de una ciudadanía moral, donde los ciudadanos se sepan sujetos no sólo de unos derechos fundamentales, sino también de unos deberes cívicos. Algunas de las teorías morales contemporáneas, como el comunitarismo y el republicanismo, han subrayado ese déficit que convierte a las sociedades actuales en conjuntos de individuos atomizados que ejercen su libertad sin cooperar a favor del interés público. Nuestra democracia es, en muchos aspectos, una «democracia sin ciudadanos», con rasgos preocupantes como la falta de civismo, la desafección política y la poca participación en los asuntos que conciernen a todos. Los ensayos que componen este libro constituyen una serie de reflexiones en torno a las dificultades de nuestro tiempo para definir la función del ciudadano. Se analizan las realidades que hacen especialmente difícil que el deber de civilidad sea asumido como algo intrínseco a la condición de ciudadano. Realidades como el peso de la economía, el poder de los medios de comunicación, el resurgir de los nacionalismos, el declive de la fraternidad y, en definitiva, la existencia de personalidades indecisas, desapegadas y desmoralizadas. La realidad es la de una «democracia contra sí misma», según la expresión de Marcel Gauchet, que, entre otros objetivos, debe repensar el papel que la educación ha de tener en la construcción de una ciudadanía más activa y comprometida. Esta obra interesará tanto a los teóricos de la ética y de la política, como a quienes se enfrentan a la tarea de educar, al gobierno de las administraciones o sencillamente se cuestionan cuál debiera ser el lugar del ciudadano en nuestras democracias.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En escenarios sociales, como el de México, conformados por los cruces de tendencias globalizadoras y realidades hitóricas marcadas por rezagos sociales y debilidades institucionales, pensar el significado y la viabilidad de la democracia plantea grandes retos a la investigación, a fin de seleccionar las claves que permitan la comprensión de tópicos tan complejos.Una de las claves elegidas en este libro colectivo es la relevancia y la viabilidad de la ciudadnía y la participación politica en la construcción de espacios políticos democráticos, bajo la consideración de que las transformación contemporáneas en el nivel estructura y social repercuten en el campo institucional, en las posibilidades mismas de un espacio público y en prácticas y formas de intervención que retan a las formas clásicas de ejercicio ciudadano.En el entendido de que la pluralidad de la sociedad civil no se agota en las formas asociacionistas, y que estas últimas son de índole diversa (que pueden ir desde movilizaciones ciudadanas hasta los grupos de interés), las pautas de la clave de investigación elegida explican que el objeto de atención de los trabajos que componen este libro sean las Organizaciones de la Sociedad Civil (OSC), al consideran que estas hacen las veces de un foco de reacción y de acción: en el que se traslapan tendencias estructurales que cruzan nuestro presente =tendencias modernizadoras, rezagos y subdesarrollos, junto con interdependencias globalizadoras=; porque sus formas de integración e intervención son un síntoma de cómo confluyen tendencias societales que se plasman en la articulación de especialización y profesionalización con formas de participación espontáneas, produciendo efectos disruptivos, y porque las formas y experiencias que condensan permiten contrastar enfoques distintos sobre las transformaciones de la política y los retos de lo que representa ser ciudadano en el presente y en sociedades como la nuestra.
Download or read book Deepening Local Democracy in Latin America written by Benjamin Goldfrank and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2015-09-10 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The resurgence of the Left in Latin America over the past decade has been so notable that it has been called “the Pink Tide.” In recent years, regimes with leftist leaders have risen to power in Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Ecuador, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Uruguay, and Venezuela. What does this trend portend for the deepening of democracy in the region? Benjamin Goldfrank has been studying the development of participatory democracy in Latin America for many years, and this book represents the culmination of his empirical investigations in Brazil, Uruguay, and Venezuela. In order to understand why participatory democracy has succeeded better in some countries than in others, he examines the efforts in urban areas that have been undertaken in the cities of Porto Alegre, Montevideo, and Caracas. His findings suggest that success is related, most crucially, to how nationally centralized political authority is and how strongly institutionalized the opposition parties are in the local arenas.
Download or read book Feminist Agendas and Democracy in Latin America written by Jane S. Jaquette and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2009-07-10 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Latin American women’s movements played important roles in the democratic transitions in South America during the 1980s and in Central America during the 1990s. However, very little has been written on what has become of these movements and their agendas since the return to democracy. This timely collection examines how women’s movements have responded to the dramatic political, economic, and social changes of the last twenty years. In these essays, leading scholar-activists focus on the various strategies women’s movements have adopted and assess their successes and failures. The book is organized around three broad topics. The first, women’s access to political power at the national level, is addressed by essays on the election of Michelle Bachelet in Chile, gender quotas in Argentina and Brazil, and the responses of the women’s movement to the “Bolivarian revolution” in Venezuela. The second topic, the use of legal strategies, is taken up in essays on women’s rights across the board in Argentina, violence against women in Brazil, and gender in the work of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission in Peru. Finally, the international impact of Latin American feminists is explored through an account of their participation in the World Social Forum, an assessment of a Chilean-led project carried out by women’s organizations in several countries to hold governments to the promises they made at international conferences in Cairo and Beijing, and an account of cross-border organizing to address femicides and domestic abuse in the Juárez-El Paso border region. Jane S. Jaquette provides the historical and political context of women’s movement activism in her introduction, and concludes the volume by engaging contemporary debates about feminism, civil society, and democracy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the end of the Pinochet regime, Chilean public policy has sought to rebuild democratic governance in the country. This book examines the links between the state and civil society in Chile and the ways social policies have sought to ensure the inclusion of the poor in society and democracy. Although Chile has gained political stability and grown economically, the ability of social policies to expand democratic governance and participation has proved limited, and in fact such policies have become subordinate to an elitist model of democracy and resulted in a restrictive form of citizen participation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La serie de reformas políticas crearon y fortalecieron las instituciones electorales mexicanas que lejos de consolidad la democracia con la aceptación de los resultados electorales han llevado a conflicto postelectorales mayores. El quiebre de los vínculos democráticos entre candidatos derrotados e instituciones y la grieta entre medios de comunicación, partidos y ciudadanos ha sido alimentada no solo por el incumplimiento al apego a las normas democráticas sino por las denuncias - infundadas la mayor parte de ellas - de inequidad y manipulación. En este entorno Enrique Peña Nieto va a tomar posesión del nuevo gobierno el primero de diciembre. Emeterio Guevara en un esplendido libro reflexiona acerca del más importante momento político de México, el triunfo de Enrique Peña Nieto, la democracia, los medios de comunicación y los alcances de la polarización social. Este libro representa la culminación de los esfuerzos de la brillante carrera del autor para entender el proceso de transición y la consolidación democrática de México. Ciertamente será leído por todos aquellos que quieren entender los entramados del poder y su vinculación con los medios de comunicación.

A la luz de este modelo analiza la dimensión normativa presente tanto en los procesos contemporáneos de globalización hegemónica y contrahegemónica (Capítulo segundo), cuanto en las nociones de «derechos humanos», «democracia» y «participación ciudadana» consagradas en la Constitución del Ecuador, un país que, buscando el «buen vivir» de su población, quiere garantizar su realización implementando un régimen de desarrollo orientado a dicho propósito, e impulsando prioritariamente la integración latinoamericana como alternativa «multipolar» (Capítulo tercero).

Download or read book Critical Theory and Democracy written by Enrique Peruzzotti and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-11-27 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on Andrew Arato’s democratic theory and its relevance to contemporary issues such as processes of democratization, civil society, constitution-making, and the modern Executive. Andrew Arato is -both globally and disciplinarily- a prominent thinker in the fields of democratic theory, constitutional law, and comparative politics, influencing several generations of scholars. This is the first volume to systematically address his democratic theory. Including contributions from leading scholars such as Dick Howard, Ulrich Preuss, Hubertus Buchstein, Janos Kis, Uri Ram, Leonardo Avritzer, Carlos de la Torre, and Nicolás Lynch, this book is organized around three major areas of Arato ́s influence on contemporary political and social thought. The first section offers a comprehensive view of Arato’s scholarship from his early work on critical theory and Western Marxism to his current research on constitution-making and its application. The second section shifts its focus from the previous, comprehensive approach, to a much more specific one: Arato ́s widespread influence on the study of civil society in democratization processes in Latin America. The third section includes a previously unpublished work, ‘A conceptual history of dictatorship (and its rivals,)’ one of the few systematic interrogations on the meaning of a political form of fundamental relevance in the contemporary world. Critical Theory and Democracy will be of interest to critical and social theorists, and all Arato scholars.
