Abstract
Se presenta a continuación una entrevista al Profesor Alberto J. Olvera,
destacado investigador de los procesos de construcción democrática en
México y en Latinoamérica, realizada en la Facultad de Ciencias Sociales de la
Universidad de Chile1
. En esta conversación se intentó profundizar en torno a
la noción de sociedad civil y sus comprensiones actuales.
El entendimiento de la sociedad civil en los contextos postautoritarios ha
llevado a replantear la noción en base a las experiencias y a las transformaciones
de las agrupaciones sociales que la componen. Este concepto ha adquirido
un lugar importante en la teoría política y para el caso de Latino América sirvió
para dar cuenta de la organización y resistencia de la sociedad durante las dictaduras
militares. Revisamos en esta entrevista la evolución de esta categoría
analítica y su funcionamiento para interpretar la sociedad civil en los actuales
regímenes democráticos
The following is an interview with Professor Alberto J. Olvera, an outstanding researcher who works on processes of democratic construction in Mexico and in Latin America, held at the Faculty of Social Sciences of the University of Chile . In this conversation, we tried to deepen into the notion of civil society and its current understandings. The understanding of civil society in post-authoritarian contexts has led to rethinking the notion based on the experiences and the transformations of the social groups that compose it. This concept has gained an important place in political theory and in Latin America it served to account for the organization and resistance of society during military dictatorships. In this interview we review the evolution of this analytical category and its utility to interpret civil society in the current democratic regimes
