HURTADO GALEANO, Deicy Patricia; BEDOYA MARULANDA, John Fredy e MESA BETANCUR, Xamara. Representations about Democracy, Institutions and Governmental Actors at the University of Antioquia. Estud. Polit. [online]. 2019, n.55, pp.246-281. ISSN 0121-5167. https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.espo.n55a12.
The article presents a characterization of the political culture from an analysis of correlations between images and representations that the students at the Universidad de Antioquia have on the social system, their actions in the political field and the image they have of the political system. The analysis offers an approximation to the perceptions of democracy and the political institutions of representation, control and participation in it. From a survey to a representative sample of students, professors and administrative employees, it is concluded that, while there is broad acceptance of democracy as a general idea in normative terms, this acceptance is weakened when university students not merely value democracy but undertake a critical evaluation of the way in which the Colombian democracy works. Moreover, it could be inferred that two matrices or constellations of political culture coexist in this political universe: one that values democratic procedures and mechanisms, and another one that is prone to dispense with substantial elements for the functioning of a democracy.
