La responsabilità comunicativa come cura “nella” sfera pubblica deliberativa: dall’ informazione alla legislazione.

Abstract

In modern liberal democracies, information affects the law

and the democratic system. Based on Habermas and Kelsen, the ar-

ticle discusses the role of information and law in defining political

power in the 21st century. The importance of social and environmental

responsibility for democracy and public opinion is emphasised.

The aim is to reassess the concept of the people represented in favour

of a deliberative multitude and political plurality. Compliance with

this principle of accountability could guide legislative action in regula-

tory gaps resulting from technological progress.
