PUERTA RIERA, María Isabel. Democratic crisis: A tour of the debate on contemporary political theory. Espiral (Guadalaj.) [online]. 2016, vol.23, n.65, pp.09-43. ISSN 1665-0565.
This article reflects on the current democratic crisis considering the authors that have been focal in its theoretical discussion, either for their theoretical contributions or for the debates in which they have intervened. A presentation is prepared of the contributions made by these authors, followed by reflections meant to intertwine the various concepts of the democratic crisis. The result is a heuristic arch that offers a perspective that looks to signal the possibilities regarding the development of democracy, amongst the skepticism that has accompanied it in recent times and the crisis that envelops its development, in which its continuance as the best form of political organization for society is called into question, having spurred discussions on the quality of democracy and its destiny as a political system and ideological model of modern societies.
