PERUZZOTTI, Enrique. The right to a good State. Temas debates (En línea) [online]. 2012, n.24, pp.75-83. ISSN 1853-984X.

This article shows the reflection of Guillermo O ‘Donnell on modern forms of military authoritarianism, democratization and the challenges of the process of institutionalization of democracy in Latin America. The author, in Democracia, agencia y estado develops democratic theory "with comparative intent" to allow open lines of theoretical discussion and empirical research on the experience of democratization in countries that do not belong to what he calls `the Northwest quadrant of the world´. The inspiration for this theory, the author explains, is the concern for the failings that have several contemporary Latin American democracies.
