La presente investigación debate el rol del Estado ante la pandemia derivada de la Covid-19, enfocándose en el caso de México y sus consecuencias para la gobernabilidad democrática. En este sentido, y presentando previamente un contexto histórico sobre el papel incremental del Estado en los últimos siglos, se analiza cómo el papel esperado de protagonismo estatal por la crisis multidimensional de la Covid-19 no se está produciendo en el país norteamericano. Más al contrario, la falta de una actuación sólida y decidida por parte del ejecutivo federal parece encaminar a un incremento notable de la pobreza y de los fallecidos por el virus, lo que asimismo incluso puede condicionar la calidad democrática del país.
The present research debates the role of the State in the face of the pandemic derived from the Covid-19, focusing on the case of Mexico and its consequences for democratic governance. In this sense, and previously presenting a historical context about the incremental role of the State in the last centuries, it is analyzed how the expected role of State protagonist due to the multidimensional crisis of the Covid-19 is not being produced in the North American country. On the contrary, the lack of solid and decisive action on the part of the federal executive seems to be leading to a notable increase in poverty and in the number of those who have died from the virus, which could even condition the democratic quality of the country.
