Maybe I'm just just too long in the tooth and grumpy, but I just can't bring myself to countenance words like "politicity" and prefer never to use them unless I really, really have to.

agree nweatherdon : The original does not state it in a form that is operationalizable, and so the vague or abstract sense of this seems fine here

Sorry, but even after googling the definition, I still don't know what "operationalizable" means. File under BS/too wordy/aesthetically unappealing.

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "For this sentence, this seems to be the best translation. I did find that the term "politicidad" has been translated as "politicity".

relations of a political nature

+

We part from the premise that implicit/evidenced in the principles on which relations of a political nature are forged between a vulnerable society and the State is the prevailing discourse on the functioning and implementation of [existing] social programs.

That's my take at least

My suggestion seeks to reproduce the source text's apparent lack of concision, as a bit of wordiness may be necessary to create an 'equivalent effect'.

I hope this helps.
Note from asker:
Thank you! it is very helpful, the text is very wordy indeed.
Peer comment(s):

agree neilmac : This is the only suggestion so far that I'd consider using. The rest are all too wordy for my liking...

Though a certain wordiness here may help to create stylistic symmetry w/a wordy source text... Thanks, Neil and cheers :-)

Reference:

POLITICIDAD: El historiador Gabriel Salazar define este concepto como la modificación de las actitudes y relaciones al interior del campo popular, traducidas en acciones, presiones y reivindicaciones de dichos actores hacia el estado, en pro de cambios económicos, sociales y políticos, más allá de las instituciones de representación peticionista.

Este concepto central será utilizado a lo largo de la investigación y de la propuesta didáctica, ya que nos entrega las visiones acerca de las lógicas colectivas de la sociedad, que busca en la participación, organización y demanda, la posibilidad de expandir el horizonte de lo político, a través de estas nuevas formas de expresar su Politicidad.
