Abstract
GUZMAN, VÍCTOR HUMBERTO. Democracy as a meaning. Regional participatory forums of public consultation in Argentina. CS [online]. 2017, n.22, pp.83-104. ISSN 2011-0324. https://doi.org/10.18046/recs.i22.2376.
This paper presents the study of part of the dispute process around the Audiovisual Communication Services law in the argentine public space during the year 2009. Specifically, it shows how the signification of democracy was configured in the Regional Participatory Forums of Public Consultation (FPCP) organized by the Federal Broadcasting Committee (COMFER) which were held during 2009 as a previous stage to the presentation of the Audiovisual Communication Services Bill. Thus, from the analysis of the interventions in the FPCP, the paper presents the emergence of democracy as democratic gradualness configured in three analytical dimensions: what democracy is not, democracy as plurality, and democracy as participation.
