Abstract

The deliberative democracy of Jürgen Habermas is conceptually
located between the liberal and republican traditions of politic. It is a theoretic
position that both makes a discursive transformation and incorporates
certain principles of each one. In the present work, this topic is analyzed
from the republican point of view, with particular emphasis in the principle
of popular sovereignty of Rousseau. The idea is to explain (part of) the
contributions that the above mentioned political theory can make to improve
the institution’s quality of the democratic rule of law.
