This book, published in Spanish, presents a detailed analysis of the current state of democracy when it faces serious challenges. The rapid rise of authoritarian ideologies, deep social inequality, the constant threat of war, and a pandemic that reshaped the geopolitical landscape are just some of the obstacles that democratic systems face today, which are reviewed here in depth from the perspective of social and political theory. An essential question arises at the heart of it all: should democracy be considered a human right beyond the nation-state's borders?
