PRONO, Santiago N.. Democracia deliberativa y ética del discurso: un abordaje crítico al problema de la posible complementación. Tópicos [online]. 2009, n.17. ISSN 1666-485X.

The theory of deliberative democracy is one of the most important philosophical-political proposals in the last years for the Normative reconstruction of the democratic State of Law, and, as the Discourse Ethics, constitutes a theoretical derivation of the perspective of discursive rationality. In this respect, is necessary to analyze what kind of relation there is between both theories. This one is a hanging task, because for some of its exponents the ethical theory seems to assume the role of driving and guiding, in an exclusive way, the political decisions, which implies a reduction of the political Philosophy to the field of the ethics. But, even when presupposes ethics, politics has his own rules. The present article analyzes this political theory from an internal point of view, indicating the problems that might follow from one philosophical approaching to the issue of the democratic politics exclusively from the perspective of the Discourse Ethics.
