Notes for a conflictual analysis of civil society-families in the Cuban transition.

In the thinking of present-day Cuba, relative values have been decanted, deposited, elevated and constituted as absolute values for human culture and must be appreciated not only from the philosophical point of view, but also legally embodied.

The fact is that no system of law such as the socialist one could make its own, with all passion, the very essence of human rights.

In this context the criterion is reinforced, in tune with the true participatory democracy that characterizes the Cuban political system at present, that the Cuban revolutionary State is per se a State of Law or state of conscience of legality, because it is democratic, democratic-participative, so it exceeds the concept of state of law and places it in the State of conscience of legality, at present a socialist State of law and social justice.

In Cuba, democracy is seen in a higher dimension: participatory democracy, as a complex process of popular participation in state decision-making. Therefore, democracy must be defined and explained not only in the purely governmental sphere, but in all the transcendence of society as a whole, in such a way as to ensure the participation and determination of the great majorities of the people, not only in political but also in economic decision-making.

This brings with it a new social magnitude of democracy: the idea of democracy as government of the people is not enough to define modern constitutional democracy, since not only the very concept of what is to be understood by the people and by government of the majority has changed over the centuries, but the contemporary idea of democracy is linked to the concept of the rule of law, more than that, the rule of law, the rule of law, the legal equality of all men, the recognition and the real and effective realization of the human rights of all individuals and the precise and necessary recognition of the rights of all minorities. for a conflictual analysis of civil society-families in the Cuban transition.
