La dimensión ética de la democracia. Raúl R. Alfonsín y la transición argentina

Abstract

The transition to democracy in Argentina was characterized by the leadership of the radical Raúl R. Alfonsín and his peculiar interpretation of the democratic political regime. This article aims to analyze the evolution of the ethical dimension of democracy, starting from the Seventies and for all the Eighties of the Twentieth Century. This idea was disseminated, in the beginning, in the party of the Unión Cívica Radical and, then, achieved a broad popular consensus. With the end of the decade, however, thetrajectory of the ethical dimension of democracy in the Alfonsinist interpretation declined definitively.
