| Sumario: | Political life is configured by a set of processes organized around some institutional spaces and a set of material conditions, but also by a set of subjective and intersubjective representations and experiences that do not have an empirical reference, as long as there are no material processes that become real referents. Political life is organized through things that are seen and constructed by another set of phenomena that do not exist but as representations, but that, nevertheless, have a more or less important weight in the way in which people articulate a set of values from which they judge the political processes and the existence or not in them of some principles. On the other hand, it also exists as a set of representations that people have made as a synthesis of historical experiences, in relation to general ideas. Here I make some considerations on the articulation of these two types of facets around democracy in the current conjuncture. |
