(Universidad de Cuenca, 2010) Cárdenas Reyes, María Cristina
The reflection of this article was developed in the city of Cuenca, an Ancient Regional Capital of the Ecuadorian Highlands historically characterized by its geographical isolation and emigration abroad. The paper employs an intermediate level of theory to interrogate the notion of governance on its applicability in a context of low-intensity democracy. Their conclusions indicate that acting locally and consuming globally would be
a substitute for an informed and critical citizenship, inside a social pragmatics which seems to prolong a modern baroque culturally tied to an ethics of conformism.
