English The book presents ways to analyze the behavior of government with regard to the rights of citizens as individuals and as members of a community or society. As a consequence of this analysis structural and attitude changes that will allow governments to be more useful and more efficient and citizens more aware of their responsibility in the determination of their destinies. It is a way to summon and encourage the citizen to recognize and use his (her) political power to foster those ideas that, collectively, are useful to achieve one's life ideals; to correct or repair what has to be corrected; and to distance themselves from the feelings of impotence and frustration that they may have before those powerful machineries of governments that are not close to the interests and aspirations of the common citizen. The main points that are considered and discussed are: Opinions, complaints, the family, education, designation of people to high government offices, political parties, the military, the Constitution, and the citizen.
