description | This article examines the evolution of the term “democracy” in Mexico between the early and mid-19th Century. At the beginning of the century, democracy was associated with the French Revolution; it was a synonym for demagogy and instability. In the constitutional debates of 1823-24, democracy was a seldom used term. Nevertheless, the word was frequently used at the Constituent Congress of 1856-57, as it had begun to be used as a synonym for representative elections and republican government. This article analyzes the evolution of the use of this term in the texts of Mariano Otero in 1840, the failed Constituent Congress of 1842 and a variety of publications from the 1850s. Finally, it analyzes the various uses that were given to the term at the Constituent Congress of 1856-57. From that moment on, democracy would be associated with the official discourse of the Mexican state, alongside liberalism and federalism. |

El artículo da cuenta de la evolución del término “democracia” en México entre principios y mediados del siglo XIX. A principios de siglo, la democracia se asociaba a la revolución francesa; era sinónimo de demagogia e inestabilidad. En los debates en torno al Acta Constitutiva y la Constitución de 1823-1824, la democracia fue un término poco utilizado. Por el contrario, la palabra apareció muchas veces en el Congreso Constituyente de 1856-1857, pues comenzaba a utilizarse como sinónimo de elecciones representativas y del sistema republicano. El artículo da cuenta de la evolución en el uso del término en los textos de Mariano Otero en los 1840, el congreso constituyente fallido de 1842 y otras publicaciones de los 1850. Finalmente, analiza los distintos usos que se le dieron a la palabra en el Congreso Constituyente de 1856-1857. A partir de este momento, la democracia quedaría asociada al discurso oficial del Estado mexicano, junto al liberalismo y el federalismo.
