Abstract

With the current importance of the values - by excess, marking disruptions that prevent the civilizational synthesis; by default, allowing the relativism and the indifference - this paper aimed to build a case study to understand the dynamics and political relations with society. In a context of diversity of powers it was enunciated a concept of valued power, approaching of the environment of values, its production, its effects, and its control. I got the scale of values as a result of the interpretation of political culture, and the intersection between the will and the reason for the social and political organization. With the scale as a result, it was possible to interpret plural democracy, watching exemplary cases of construction, defense and alterations of the scale. It was also possible to frame, in this context, the solution of the sphere of power, between the concept and the shape that will assign to the substance of the values: sovereignty.
