Resumo: In this theoretical essay, it is in focus the politics’ problem, of that power which invests on the awareness, the body and the existence of individuals, through micro power strategies and new domain ways, as the universal suffrage. Considering the competitive democracy, this study sought the analysis of the distance between the ideal and real political scenario and problematize the suffrage’s role, in order to assure the intended equality, in the terms of the constituted rights. Can elections constitute themselves as a way to contest the current system and social transformation factor? The objective of this research was to analyze how elections can facilitate the choice of a governor that acts in favor of the minorities, because of that it is a preponderant factor to protect the population from a tyrant govern. It could be concluded that, this way, the citizens’ participation through universal suffrage is one of the warranties for the existence of a “plain” democracy (“polyarchy”), into a public scenario in which the action of the collective movements is decisive searching for the emancipation and politicization of the disadvantaged groups.

Tendo em vista a democracia concorrencial, buscou-se analisar o distanciamento entre o cenário político ideal e o real e problematizar o papel do sufrágio, no sentido de assegurar a igualdade pretendida, em termos dos direitos constituídos. As eleições podem se constituir como um caminho para contestação do regime vigente e fator de transformação social? A pesquisa teve como objetivo analisar como o pleito eleitoral pode facilitar a escolha de um governo que atue em prol da maioria da população, pois isso é um fator preponderante para proteger o povo de um governo tirano. Conclui-se, portanto, que a participação cidadã através do sufrágio universal é uma das garantias para a existência de uma democracia “plena” (poliarquia), dentro de um cenário público em que é decisiva a ação dos movimentos coletivos, em busca da emancipação e da politização das camadas desfavorecidas.Universidade Federal de Viçosa - UFV2021-01-02info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufv.br/reves/article/view/1088410.18540/revesvl4iss1pp09001-09016REVES - Revista Relações Sociais; Vol. 4 No. 1 (2021); 09001-09016REVES - Revista Relações Sociais; Vol. 4 Núm. 1 (2021); 09001-09016REVES - Revista Relações Sociais; v. 4 n. 1 (2021); 09001-090162595-4490reponame:REVES - Revista Relações Sociaisinstname:Universidade Federal de Viçosa (UFV)instacron:UFVporhttps://periodicos.ufv.br/reves/article/view/10884/6261Copyright (c) 2020 REVES - Revista Relações Sociaishttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAparecido de Carvalho, Ederde Paula, Alexandre da SilvaKodato, Sergio 2021-05-04T21:53:27Zoai:ojs.periodicos.ufv.br:article/10884Revistahttps://periodicos.ufv.br/reves/PUBhttps://periodicos.ufv.br/reves/oaireves.journal@ufv.br||2595-44902595-4490opendoar:2021-05-04T21:53:27REVES - Revista Relações Sociais - Universidade Federal de Viçosa (UFV)false
