MONSIVAIS CARRILLO, Alejandro. Deliberation as a mechanism for democratic control: analytical precisions and emerging issues. Rev. Mex. Sociol [online]. 2014, vol.76, n.3, pp.471-499. ISSN 2594-0651.

Deliberative theory continues to face a major challenge: clarifying its analytical contributions to the explanation of how political systems democratize. Endorsing this agenda, this paper offers a critique of deliberative democracy, and argues that deliberation is a key mechanism of democratic accountability. It asserts the difference between deliberation as a political practice and the democratic norms that are used to analyze it. Discussing the "systemic turn" in the research agenda, this paper concludes providing some considerations for the renewed study of deliberative politics.
