Abstract

Resumen: Este artí­culo sugiere dirigir nuestra atención al ejercicio crí­tico del jurista y teórico polí­tico alemán Carl Schmitt sobre la democracia liberal de su tiempo para enriquecer el panorama de los diversos enfoques sobre la democracia y hacernos sensibles a algunos de sus más importantes aspectos problemáticos. Frente a la realidad de la democracia pluralista, y a partir de un diagnóstico pesimista y sesgado de la república democrática de Weimar, Schmitt propone su idea de una democracia plebiscitaria. Con "œla decisión" como eje central de su propuesta teórica, ese autor intenta superar los desafí­os que las sociedades contemporáneas plantearon a la polí­tica, pero se trata de un tipo de decisión unilateral e uní­voca que parece a la vez poco viable e indeseable. The present article analyzes Carl Schmitt"™s critique of XXth century liberal democracy, as one of the most interesting perspectives on its problematic aspects. Moving from a pessimistic evaluation of Weimar"™s Democratic Republic, the German theorist advances his proposal of a plebiscitary democracy, centered on a specific kind of decision and oriented to overcome the crisis of the political in contemporary societies
