Characters of change and (des) constructiveness of democracy in public locus and its agents in transnationalism

Abstract:

The democratic society. What can be understood by this phrase, term, concept? What makes a (verily) democratic society? What is the effective location of democracy? How, in contemporary society, to exercise democracy? Faced with these questions that raise the investigation of the present essay, one can observe the phenomena and nuances of the current democracy - nationally and internationally - being deconstructed and reconstructed, in a way opposite to its real meaning and purpose, remaining only focused on kratos of its etymological origin. Existing democracy would not be traced in a veiled despotism, inserting a totalitarian state, through agents (internal and external) or the advancement of social pluralities and complexities modified it in such a way, that the abstraction of the concept of what would be democracy was expired? The method of approach used in the problem faced was the comprehensive method, with its fit in research being essential, as social science cannot be encompassed and qualified if only logical procedures are used. The research technique used was bibliographic research.

Keywords:
