description In recent decades, the philosophical discussion regarding democracy has been enhanced by the enriching contributions of three Latin American thinkers: Dussel, Laclau and Castro Gómez, who, in order to propose alternatives to the neoliberal model of democracy, have developed sophisticated philosophical readings of politics and articulated different models of democracy, based on the theory of hegemony. Although they appeal to different theoretical traditions and postulates, they share the objective of radicalizing democracy and legitimizing emancipatory policies aimed at the inclusion of the victims of capitalism, patriarchy and racism, among other forms of social and cultural exclusion. Dussel proposes a foundationalist philosophy of politics and a democracy based on material, discursive and efficacy-related assumptions. Laclau, for his part, proposes a theory of hegemony which, under discursive postulates, tries to articulate the instituting antagonism in institutions that allow the hegemonic game oriented towards social emancipation. For his part, Castro Gómez, in a permanent dialectic with Dussel and Laclau, proposes a theory of hegemonic-democracy, which recovers republican values ​​and mixes them with the transmodern recovery of the traditions blocked by Eurocentric modernity.
