LOPEZ-GARCIA, Delia Luisa. Governability, Neoliberalism and Democracy. Reflections on Growing Global Conservatism. Estudios del Desarrollo Social [online]. 2021, vol.9, n.3 Epub 01-Dez-2021. ISSN 2308-0132.
In countries of the capitalist center, governability was called the stable relationship between the rulers and the ruled. But if the timeline is reviewed on the subject, it appears as the initial notion of ungovernability; It characterized the conflictive socio-political situation of the 1970s when, as never before after the second post-war period, groups of conservative ideology began to predominate in the capitalist countries of the center that felt their global social interests threatened by the rise of the so-called State of Welfare and its liberal democracy. So they took on the task of transforming that reality, turning it into a governability of neoliberal hegemony and consequently, into a neoliberal democracy. Neither the discourse nor the neoliberal anti-statist practice have tried to abolish the state. Although its social "burdens" have been stripped away, what has taken place is a strengthening of the State, although applied to other purposes. Thus, in March 2019, the SARS-COV-2 virus began to spread in a good part of the planet, which gave rise to the COVID-19 pandemic and with it, the global economic and social crisis of capitalism deepened.
