Este artículo presenta un estudio longitudinal sobre las actitudes democráticas y la participación política de los jóvenes sudamericanos a lo largo delproceso de crecimiento del uso de los medios digitales en la región. Se ha probado la asociación entre sus valores democráticos y su comportamientopolítico desde la década de 1980 y el creciente acceso a los medios digitales desde la década de 1990. Se analizaron los cuarenta años de la basede datos de la Encuesta Mundial de Valores (WVS). Identificamos que los jóvenes de Argentina, Brasil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Perú y Uruguayno se han vuelto más democráticos y muestran niveles bajos y estables de participación política a lo largo del aumento de los índices de desarrollosocioeconómico y la difusión de los medios digitales en sus países.
