Ética y política: fundamentos de la democracia

Section role: supports the systematization section by connecting the budget simulation from Section 2 with formal concepts of political ethics and pluralism. Slides: (1) Title — 'Ética Civil y Democracia: Del Dilema a la Teoría'; (2) Ética de Mínimos vs. Máximos — bullets: definition of minimum standards for coexistence versus maximum personal ideals, why democracy requires a baseline of shared justice; (3) El Contrato Social — bullets: society as a mutual agreement, how corruption breaches this pact and damages trust; (4) Pluralismo Moral y Convivencia — bullets: acknowledging diversity in beliefs while maintaining common civic rules; (5) Límites al Poder de las Mayorías — bullets: how democracy protects minority dignity and enforces distributive justice beyond simple majority rule; (6) Transparencia y Responsabilidad Política — bullets: core duties of public servants and citizens alike, referencing the trade-offs explored in the previous budget activity. Closing slide: '¿Puede haber verdadera democracia sin una ética ciudadana que la sustente?' — hands control back to the teacher to transition into the individual consciousness check.
