RESTREPO TAMAYO, John Fernando y GALLO GOMEZ, Juan Camilo. Public reason and democratic justice: The theoretical basis of constitutional democracy in rawls’ political theory. Derecho glob. Estud. sobre derecho justicia [online]. 2021, vol.6, n.18, pp.171-197. Epub 06-Sep-2021. ISSN 2448-5136. https://doi.org/10.32870/dgedj.v6i18.412.
The paper exposes the theoretical principles of John Rawls’ political philosophy to establish the link between constitutional democracy and the theory of justice. For this, the fundamental concepts of Rawlsian theory such as principles of justice, original position, veil of ignorance, intersecting consensus and public reason are first explored. From there, a reflection is developed around the role of the constitution and the constitutional court; to finally conclude that there is a theoretical basis for the justification of constitutional democracy in Rawls’ thought.
