Keywords:
Democracy, political participation, transparency, citizenship, education, moral development.Abstract
En los últimos años se ha intensificado en España el desarrollo legislativo y las experiencias reales que pretenden promover la participación de los ciudadanos en la cosa pública. Se trata de propuestas que parten, según los casos, de teóricos, de organizaciones no gubernamentales, foros ciudadanos, asociaciones y evidentemente de los gobiernos, parlamentos y administraciones públicas. Muchas de estas propuestas impulsan una “democracia abierta” como concepto amplio que liga la profundización democrática a nuevas vías de participación ciudadana, transparencia y acceso a la información. Se hace una especial referencia a la Comunidad Autónoma de Canarias que constituye, en lo que toca a su calidad democrática, un caso singular en el universo autonómico. No hay otro caso comparable de déficit democrático. En Canarias el Estatuto de autonomía articuló un sistema electoral injusto y supuestamente transitorio que aún hoy pervive. El artículo refiere los cambios socio-jurídicos que se aprecian en la última década.
In recent years the legislation on political participation and transparency was developed and the real experiences that aim to promote the participation of citizens in public affairs. It is proposed to start, as appropriate, theoretical, non-governmental organizations, citizens' forums, associations and obviously governments, parliaments and governments. Many of these proposals drive an "open democracy" as a broad concept that link the democratic deepening to new avenues for citizen participation, transparency and access to information. Additionally, Education and the educational transmission process play a decisive role in the construction of an advanced democracy. Special reference to the Canary Islands that is, in what touches to its democratic quality, a unique case in the Spanish regional universe. There is no other comparable case of democratic deficit. In the Canary Islands, the Statute of Autonomy articulated an unfair electoral system. The article refers to the socio-legal changes that have taken place in the last few years.
