Abstract
La democracia contemporánea se debate entre el vaivén de los
modelos representativos y participativos. En ambos, la soberanía no ha encontrado
total satisfacción. Por tanto, para superar dicho dilema es necesario
evaluar los tipos de representación y los instrumentos de participación
con el objetivo de alcanzar un tercer modelo: la Democracia Líquida. Aquí
se exponen sus tres versiones: directa, mediada en los espacios ganados
por partidos sin representantes partidarios y mediada por representantes
proxies ad hoc. Se describe su capacidad de deliberación y la inclusión de
Internet en la misma. Finalmente se elaboran algunas discusiones respecto
a los límites de los argumentos expuestos y se concluye con las advertencias
sobre sus alcances
Contemporary democracy is torn between the swaying of representative and participatory models. In both, sovereignty has not found total satisfaction. Therefore, to overcome this dilemma is necessary to evaluate the types of representation and participation instruments with the objective of achieving a third model: the liquid democracy. Here we show three versions: direct, mediated in the spaces won by parties without party representatives and mediated by proxies’ representatives ad hoc. The capacity for deliberation and inclusion of Internet in the same is described too. Finally, some discussions are developed regarding the limits of the arguments and conclude with warnings about its scope
