SUMMARY:

The general objective of this work is to analyze the concept of modern political democracy in the writings of the German thinker Max Weber (1864-1920). The hypothesis defended here is that Weberian democracy is based on a system of checks and balances between three fundamental institutions: the rational bureaucracy, the representative parliament and the plebiscitary president. This is because Weber has a vision of the conflict of values as insoluble in modernity and such institutions can give way to the conflict without, however, overcoming or suppressing it. After all, it is the dynamic between these institutions that equates the will of the electoral masses, with their multiple private interests, with the need to maintain a unity of the political body. Furthermore, in modern states, the representative regime is the only one capable of expressing the will of all those represented efficiently and objectively, so that such will can be formalized rationally through laws and bureaucratic norms.
