The concept of democratic society on the example of Latin America

Abstract

In modern realities, when the term “democracy” is particularly discussed and relevant on the agenda of the world community, the study of the political system of developing countries is the main issue of many political scientists. At the same time, researchers are particularly interested in the ongoing transformation processes and their historical background in Latin America. The purpose of this scientific article is to study the current state of the socio-political system of the Latin American region through a comprehensive approach of external and internal factors. The article also includes a comprehensive approach to the study of the current state and formation of a democratic society in the Latin American region. The theoretical significance of the work lies in the fact that many scientific works in the field of studying the political system of Latin America consider the current state of democracy in the region through the prism of historical events. However, it is necessary to consider such factors as external influence (neighboring countries, interventionist countries), the mentality of the local population, as well as current events in the world. The practical significance of the work lies in the application of the experience of some Latin American countries, by studying certain prerequisites of the current “democratic society” of the studied region.
