Luego de desarrollar conceptual y analíticamente la categoría de sociedad civil (a partir de unreflexión emanada del intercambio teórico-epistemológico entre la perspectiva colectivista y liberal), el artículo da cuenta de aquellas implicancias que nos permiten comprender el potencial de la sociedad civil para contribuir a la democratización. A su vez, se analizan las dinámicas que caracterizan el vínculo ambiguo entre sociedad civil y comunidad -ambiguo ya que las comunidades con lazos excepcionalmente fuertes entre sus miembros pueden ofrecer tanto elementos para el fortalecimiento de la sociedad civil como obstáculos para su crecimiento-; se sostiene que el papel que tendrán las comunidades en relación con la sociedad civil en la construcción social y el fortalecimiento civil de ciudadanía dependerá de varios factores, particularmente de los mecanismos disponibles para lograr consensos dentro de la comunidad y se explora la amenaza emanada de un nuevo discurso de intermediación de intereses (tanto para la comunidad como para la sociedad civil), el neopluralismo. En la sección final se discuten sus implicaciones para la democracia.... view less

Having developed conceptually and analytically civil society as a sociological category (based
on a conceptual reflection stemming from a theoretical-epistemological dialogue between the collectivist and liberal perspectives), this article accounts for the implications that allow
us to understand the potential of civil society in contributing to democratization. Throughout
this work the dynamics that characterize the ambiguous relationship between civil society and community -ambiguous in as much communities with exceptionally strong ties between its members can provide both elements for the strengthening of civil society as well as obstacles to its growth- are analyzed. It is argued that the role of communities in relation to civil society
in the social construction and civil strengening of citizenship will depend on several factors, particularly the mechanisms available to build consensus within the community. The threat stemming from neopluralism as a novel discourse of interest intermediation, both for the community and civil society, is explored. In the final section, the implications of this discourse
for democracy are discussed.... view less
