CUEVAS SILVA, JUAN MARÍA. AUTHORITARIANISM AND DEMOCRACY IN LATIN AMERICA: TWO EXTREMES OF SOCIAL, POLITICAL AND CULTURAL HEGEMONIC RATIONALITIES. rev.relac.int.estrateg.segur. [online]. 2014, vol.9, n.1, pp.111-129. ISSN 1909-3063.

In this article some early elements of authoritarianism in Latin America are considered, specifically their process within the encomienda system. First, an analysis is made how from there, an authoritarian system started and has taken root in the thinking of Latin American politics. The second section describes some of the contradictions of the democratic process that Latin America has taken on, as a system that is implemented from the local capitalistic middle class, with a scheme that repeats the pattern of authoritarianism. In this respect, emphasis is made of the principles that should tell apart a Democratic State, the meaning of citizenship, the connotation of the capitalist and industrial system, as well as the various dynamics that have helped implement authoritarianism more political than democratic. The main objective is to formulate an investigative approach to what has meant the creation of citizenship, from the context of authoritarianism and democracy in Latin America; all this within the framework of the research document "expressions of intersubjectivity from the relation between education and digital citizenship ", carried out at the Universidad of San Buenaventura, in Bogota.

Palavras-chave : Authoritarianism; democracy; encomienda; citizenship; Modern States; democratization; development; underdevelopment.
