Entre o radicalismo e a resignação: teoria democrática em Direito e democracia, de Habermas

Abstract

Between radicalism and resignation democratic theory in Habermas's Between facts and NormsUma teoria política conformista não é teoria.Franz Neumann 1 Em 1962, um estudioso relativamente desconhecido publicou uma contribuição para a teoria democrática que estava destinada a gerar uma espécie de sensação no universo intelectual ainda bastante paralisado da Alemanha no pós-guerra. Aparecendo apenas 13 anos após o restabelecimento da democracia liberal no país, a obra que se tornaria uma referência, escrita por Jürgen Habermas, de 33 anos de idade, Mudança estrutural da esfera pública, 2 tinha como foco precisamente aquelas características da democracia contemporânea que os colegas acadêmicos mais conservadores do jovem autor tendiam a menosprezar. Muito influenciado pelo neomarxismo da Escola de Frankfurt, Habermas argumentava que a democracia contemporânea exibe uma série de

“…Even so, Habermas still received criticisms, many of them due to a construction based on communicative action; acceptance of the state and liberal law; the approximation of constitutionality to the detriment of a radical democracy (SCHEUERMAN, 2014). Miguel (2014, p. 21-22) lists some of the criticisms: (i) "insensitivity regarding the impact of social asymmetries"; (ii) "attachment to an ideal of face-to-face communication" and (iii) "... neglect of the conflicting nature of politics".…”

“…This vision, as highlighted in the introduction, conceives the plurality of the public sphere (ARENDT, 2009) as a source of equality and difference, of discourse and of action. This argument then, calls for research that seeks to understand the transformation of communicative power into administrative power and how law as a medium relates to this process (SCHEUERMAN, 2014). It also opens up a research perspective on the colonizing effects of the market and the state in the formation of public spheres (or, as previously indicated, new ways of thinking about interactions), especially research on how the present relations "society-state", "labor-capital" and "market-society", among others (TENÓRIO, 1998;, and their impacts on management.…”

The impact of Jürgen Habermas’s scientific production: a scientometric review

“…Habermas, in opposition to the risks of a postmodernist relativism, attributed an “ontologically inclusive” stance, gathering principles from positivist, hermeneutic and linguistic traditions (Garland, 2014 ). Given the different stages of Habermas’s intellectual trajectory, a set of discussions emerged about the changes and limits of his work (Fraser, 1990 ; Mészáros, 2004 ; Scheuerman, 2014 ). According to Voirol ( 2012 ), his work marked the abandonment of the dialectic perspective in favor of reconstruction.…”
