A normatividade do discurso em Habermas Sobre a neutralidade do princípio do discurso em relação ao direito e à moral

Abstract

The objective of this article is to examine the sense of the neutrality of the discourse principle in Habermas’ theory of the law and the democracy. In relation to the law and the moral, the discourse principle is neutral, but it contains a normativity, that bases on the content of the pragmatic presuppositions of argumentation in general. In contrast to some interpretations that impute a minimum moral sense to discourse principle, it is intended to show as Habermas’ theory canconfer diverse forms of application to this principle, according to the practical questions that arive in the political public sphere.
