The contributions of Agustín Cueva to the understanding of political processes in Latin America-his interpretation of Latin American reality, characterized by social movements, dictatorships, and transitions to democracy, from a historical perspective-highlight the fragility of the region's democracies and the need for democracies that lead to real structural transformation in Latin American societies. A review of these contributions allows us to approach contemporary political processes in the region in the context of neoliberalism, the main challenge in the construction of societies that are democratic, fair, and equitable. Las contribuciones de Agustín Cueva a la comprensión de los procesos políticos en América Latina (su interpretación de la realidad latinoamericana, caracterizada por movimientos sociales, dictaduras y transiciones a la democracia, desde una perspectiva histórica) ponen de relieve la fragilidad de las democracias de la región y la necesidad de democracias que conduzcan a una transformación estructural real en las sociedades latinoamericanas. Una revisión de sus aportes nos permite acercarnos a los procesos políticos contemporáneos en la región dentro del contexto del neoliberalismo, el principal desafío a la construcción de sociedades democráticas, justas y equitativas
