Abstract

Since the conception until its resumption in modernity, democracy is known as the best form of government, apex of political organization, reducing all possibilities to democratic. However, since the combination to market interests, the result of the capitalist system of states (neo) liberal, and basing on an instrumental rationality, there is a true emptying of the democratic essence, since the model ignores who the legitimate. There has been a dark side to this model, silencing, deletes, and fosters invisibility, imposing rethink it, seeking alternatives that enable resume its essence. This article aims to contribute to this debate by investigating what those alternatives that would allow rethinking democracy and its purposeful viability changes. Starting from the search for alternatives within the social, civil disobedience is embodied as interesting path that enables opening spaces for other democratic ways, by breaking with the current paradigm, rethinking democracy beyond its current model.
