Abstract

PEREZ FERNANDEZ DEL CASTILLO, Germán. The social challenges of democracy in Mexico. Estud. polít. (Méx.) [online]. 2017, n.41, pp.27-53. ISSN 0185-1616.

In recent years social efforts to legitimize authorities through democratic processes have been successful, however, this can be overshadowed by the lack of representation of social interests in the exercise of power. When there are factors such as: inequality, unemployment, low wages and the precariousness of work, social exclusion is reproduced and this in turn, disenchantment towards democracy. For this reason, new routes must be sought to consolidate democracy and avoid social atomization, a departure from politics and low social participation.

Keywords : Democracy; inequality; representation; globalization; social cohesion.
