GIAVEDONI, José G.. Democratic Remains. Thought and Politics in the Post-Dictatorship. Temas debates (En línea) [online]. 2023, n.45, suppl.1, pp.73-80. ISSN 1853-984X.

The path that this paper intends to follow refers to a reading of the past (a controversy that occurred 40 years ago) and an update on our present. It is about tracing that arena of contention in the 1980s and recognizing the trail that it has left in our present. In this present, the weaknesses of democracy, the debts that have not yet been settled are enunciated as what remains to be achieved. However, these debts seem to drag on from the beginning, democracy in post-dictatorship Argentina was born with those debts on its back. This itself is at the heart of that controversy in the 1980s that, with the hegemony achieved by the so-called studies of transitions to democracy, was forgotten, with transitology becoming naturalized as the almost exclusive way of reflecting on it. The purpose is to reflect on democracy as a rest, that which allows us to think about it and that, at the same time and paradoxically, makes it impossible.
