Abstract

The establishment of democracy, the construction of what means citizen participation and a discourse that tends to be close to the struggle for and on behalf of people, it is deprived of all credibility. The dichotomies between left and right come into tension because the close dialogue that seems to have the leaders in the governments that identify themselves as leftist and not just the traditional left address their actions toward the disposession of land to assure and empower private capital. This type of actions has generated a kind of unconformity among people who have relied on the ability of such governments to exercise power through justice, as consequence there is a political imbalance that make crisis on their speeches about democracy and the way of do politics.
