ABAL, Federico G. THE POSSIBILITY OF AN EXCLUSIONARY PUBLIC REASON. Ideas y Valores [online]. 2014, vol.63, n.156, pp.33-52. ISSN 0120-0062.  https://doi.org/10.15446/ideasyvalores.v63n156.38325.

The deliberative conception of democracy proposes some solutions to the challenge of reasonable pluralism. The fact that people are reasonably divided according to comprehensive beliefs they consider to be true and valuable poses problems with respect to the legitimacy of political decisions, their stability, and the justice of democratic institutions. Theoreticians of deliberative democracy have highlighted the importance of public reasoning among citizens who recognize one another as free and equal. The article analyzes the normative component of these types of proposals and the ideal of public reason that allows for its optimal development.

Palavras-chave : deliberative democracy; pluralism; public reason.
