MONSIVAIS CARRILLO, Alejandro. Deliberación pública, pluralismo agonístico y democracia. Reafirmación de la democracia deliberativa ante la crítica posestructuralista. Secuencia [online]. 2005, n.62, pp.120-146. ISSN 2395-8464.  https://doi.org/10.18234/secuencia.v0i62.915.

Public deliberation attempted to establish a solid basis for reinforcing and expanding democracy. However, from a post-structuralist perspective in political theory, it is thought that this idea, due to its normative assumptions, is unsuitable for this purpose. This article discusses the deliberative and post-structuralist perspectives regarding democracy. On the one hand, it shows that, despite its contributions, the post-structuralist approach lacks a precise formulation of how to construct institutions and democratic practices. On the other hand, the article discusses certain deliberative approaches to democracy that provide this formulation. One of them illustrates the importance of deliberation in understanding the processes of democratization in Latin America.
