El presente volumen recopila textos que O´Donnell ha publicado durante los últimos diez años. Como el subtitulo sugiere. estos textos parten de una doble premisa. Por una parte nunca olvidar los horrores del pasado autoritario y. por la otra. no renunciar a una crítica fundamentada de las deficiencias que exhiben las democracias existentes. incluyendo por supuesto la argentina. Para ello. el autor recorre temas de gran importancia teórica y práctica. a los que aporta ángulos innovadores. entre ellos. la adecuada conceptualización del régimen democrático; el lugar de la agencia y el estado en el mismo; la rendición de cuentas; y el estado de derecho. En todos ellos aparecen las Disonancias del título. entre valores y prácticas. aspiraciones y realizaciones. y formalidad e informalidad. que los textos van detectando y analizando.
