Abstract

Just  as Karl Popper  in his work  “The open society and  its enemies”, considered that  deterministic historicism was  a clear enemy of Western societies, analogously, today we could affirm that in current Latin American and Caribbean societies, there are a series of factors such  as education, the validity of social rights, democratic institutional structures, and the active  participation of civil society, together with an adequate administrative career and transparency in public contracting, which favor and  invigorate democratic life, and  to which, colloquially, we could call them “friends of democracy”.
