QUIROGA, Hugo. Questioned democracies: Competitive elections, politics of enmity and citizen mistrust. Estud. - Cent. Estud. Av., Univ. Nac. Córdoba [online]. 2021, n.46, pp.13-31. ISSN 1852-1568.

Abstract We are living in an era of volatility that generates disruptive processes in the democratic forms and political systems. This time is marked by bewilderment and disturbance. The unexpected global crises due to COVID-19 has disrupted our lives and societies, extending this uncertain present and accelerating even more the fear to the future. This pandemic has made the public liberal political order malfunctions more visible. These malfunctions refer to the crisis of the parties systems, the dissolution of the massive political identities, the fluctuation of the vote, the new types of leaderships- frequently with some decisionist and authoritative features- and the multiple and persistent inequalities. These components reveal a democratic fatigue with institutional degradations. Ultimately, we assist to an anti-liberal generalized uncertainty, fundamentally in politics, mainly in Europe and in the Donald Trump’s US.
