Esta situación resulta alarmante en América Latina, debido a factores como el incumplimiento de promesas electorales, las bajas condiciones de vida y los casos de corrupción en las más altas esferas gubernamentales, que han dado lugar a la llamada “sociedad de la desconfianza”, la cual tiene su correlato en una mayor desafección en el sistema democrático. Para enfrentar esto se debe desplegar una estrategia que contenga dos aspectos básicos: por un lado, la constitucionalización de mayores mecanismos de participación ciudadana en los asuntos públicos y, por otro, la recomposición de las funciones tradicionales de los partidos políticos, a fin de recuperar el vehículo en el cual se organizan y transportan los intereses políticos de la sociedad. Este camino ha sido adoptado por las Constituciones del llamado nuevo constitucionalismo latinoamericano que, lamentablemente, en el caso de Venezuela, se ha visto seriamente dañado por la crisis generada por los conflictos entre oposición y gobierno.Instituto de Investigaciones Jurídicas, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de Mèxico2019-02-22info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtículo evaluado por paresapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.juridicas.unam.mx/index.php/cuestiones-constitucionales/article/view/1323310.22201/iij.24484881e.2019.40.13233Cuestiones Constitucionales Revista Mexicana de Derecho Constitucional; Número 40, enero-junio 2019; 221-241Cuestiones Constitucionales.

The representative democracy carries in its DNA the genes of mistrust in the representatives, so that it must be present in doses that do not generate situations rupture or resignation on the part of the represented. This situation is alarming in Latin America, due to factors such as the breach of electoral promises, low living conditions and cases of corruption in the highest levels of government, which have led to the so-called “society of distrust”, which has its counterpart in greater disaffection in the democratic system. To face this, a strategy must be deployed that contains two basic aspects: on the one hand, the constitutionalization of greater mechanisms of citizen participation in public affairs and, on the other, the recomposition of the traditional functions of the political parties, in order to recover the vehicle in which the political interests of society are organized and transported. This path has been adopted by the Constitutions of the so-called new latin american constitutionalism that, unfortunately, in the case of Venezuela, has been seriously damaged by the crisis generated by the conflicts between opposition and government. |
