Abstract
The geopolitical context of the so-called "democracies", more than ever, reveals their fragility and what we call here, with Derrida, the inexorable law of autoimmune suicide that runs through them as "cracy", force, self-authorized authority of the "demos". This places democracy in a semantic vacuum with regard to its present, so it is always "to come". In this reflection, we consider "democracy" as a gift in the Derridean sense. That is, it necessarily refers to the economy, to the circle of obligation, exchange and debt (like law), but in the double bind of being interrupted by an aneeonomic decision, of which it is heterogeneous, strange (justice), but inseparable. Democracy as such is then an aporia. An experience of the impossible. We also address a point considered a pivotal point, 20 years after democracy: the debate known as "You will not kill", in 2004, in the Córdoba magazine La Intemperie, directed by Sergio Schmucler, with the idea of tracing its effects of eventability 20 years later, regarding the unanswerability of the question of what is fair.
