Los nuevos escenarios transnacionales y la democracia asimétrica
description
This article addresses Representative Democracy and its inadequacy to deal with new asymmetric environments of complex societies, considering the asymmetric nature of its representativity, and, as urgent as it is, the need for a reevaluation of its current models so that they meet adequately the current demands for participation. Globalization forces reflection on Democracy of modern times and questioning about the issues of its foundations, about the instituions which guarantee its exercise and about its limits. The hypotheses of this article are based on the premise that authentic participation in the Nation can only be achieved when all those involved feel they are participating in spirit. The renewal of democratic theory is based, above all, on the formulation of democratic participation criteria that are not restricted to the act of voting. Participatory Democracy must represent a more advanced stage of the concept of Democracy - as a social value and not only as a procedure. The general objective is to demonstrate that Modern Representative Democracy could neither reach other forms of life outside politics, nor in any other political orders, different from those restricted to the Modern Constitutional State. Behind the theories which seek to orient the adoption of “democracies” capable of co-existing with diversity , complexity, solidarity and participation, there exists an irrefutable optimism regarding the possibility of elaborating what could be called a democratic theory for the new stage created by globalization.

Participatory Democracy must represent a more advanced stage of the concept of Democracy - as a social value and not only as a procedure. The general objective is to demonstrate that Modern Representative Democracy could neither reach other forms of life outside politics, nor in any other political orders, different from those restricted to the Modern Constitutional State.

La globalización obliga a la refl exión sobre la democracia de los modernos y a preguntarse por las cuestiones de sus fundamentos, las instituciones que garantizan su ejercicio y sus límites. Las hipótesis de este artículo se fundamentan en la premisa de que la auténtica participación solo puede ser alcanzada cuando todos se sientan espiritualmente participantes. La renovación de la teoría democrática debe verse asentada, antes de todo, en la formulación de criterios democráticos de participación que no la confi nan en el acto de voto. La democracia participativa debe representar un estadio más avanzado del concepto de democracia: es la democracia como valor social y no apenas como procedimiento. El objetivo general es demostrar que la democracia Representativa Moderna no consiguió alcanzar otras formas de vida fuera de la política, ni en otros órdenes políticos que no sean aquéllos restringidos al Estado Constitucional Moderno. Por detrás de las teorías que procuran orientar la adopción de “democracias” capaces de coexistir con la diversidad, la complejidad, la solidaridad y la participación, existe un optimismo irrefutable en cuanto a la posibilidad de elaboración de lo que puede ser llamada una teoría democrática para el nuevo escenario creado por la globalización.2010text (article)application/pdfhttps://dialnet.unirioja.es/servlet/oaiart?codigo=7512662(Revista) ISSN 1794-2918Jurídicas, ISSN 1794-2918, Vol. 7, Nº. 2, 2010, pags. 13-41spaLICENCIA DE USO: Los documentos a texto completo incluidos en Dialnet son de acceso libre y propiedad de sus autores y/o editores.
