Abstract

The democratic character of the kantian legally-political reflexion is analysed predominantly by the secondary literature in the rational construction of his public law, based on the notion of liberty as autonomy (to obey the law that could be given to yourself). There is, however, another place in which this character is also present: in the realization of this law that requires a criterion to move from theory to praxis. Kant finds this criterion in the principle of publicity.
