Habermas` Absent Institutionalism
Unformatted Document Text:  1 Jurgen Habermas, Truth and Justification, trs. Barbara Fultner, (Cambridge, MA: MIT Press, 2003), p.8. 2 Jurgen Habermas, Moral Consciousness and Communicative Action, trs. Thomas McCarthy, (Cambridge, MA: MIT Press, 1990), p.92. 3 Jurgen Habermas, Moral Consciousness and Communicative Action, trs. Thomas McCarthy, (Cambridge, MA: MIT Press, 1990), p.104. 4 Jurgen Habermas, Between Facts and Norms, trs. William Rehg, (Cambridge, MA: MIT Press, 1996), p.50. 5 Ibid., p.50. 6 Ibid., p.56. 7 See p.768 of Jurgen Habermas, “Constitutional Democracy: A Paradoxical Union of Contradictory Principles?”Political Theory, vol. 29, no. 6, 2001, pp. 766-781. 8 Jurgen Habermas, Theory of Communicative Action, Vol. 1, p.19. 9 David Bolotin, “Thucydides,” in Strauss and Cropsey History of Political Philosophy, (Chicago: The University of Chicago Press, 1987). 10 This line of interpretation is clearly explained by Jean Cohen, “Discourse Ethics and Civil Society,” in Universalism vs. Communitarianism, ed. David Rasmussen, (Cambridge, MA: MIT Press, 1990), pp.83-105. A deeper defense of Habermas’ position on these grounds is found in Arato and Cohen, Civil Society and Political Theory, (Cambridge, MA: MIT Press, 1992), pp.345-420. 11 Nancy Fraser, Chapter 6 “What’s Critical about Critical Theory? The Case of Habermas and Gender,” Unruly Practices, (Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press, 1989), pp.113-143. 12 Ibid. pp.119-120. 13 Axel Honneth, The Struggle for Recognition, (Cambridge MA: the MIT Press, 1996). 14 Maurizio Viroli, For Love of Country: An Essay on Patriotism and Nationalism, (New York: Oxford University Press, 1995). 15 Adeno Addis, “On Human Diversity and the Limits of Toleration,” in Nomos XXXIX: Ethnicity and Group Rights, ed. By Shapiro and Kymlicka, (New York: New York University Press, 1997), pp.112-153. 16 Ibid, p. 133. 17 Ibid, p. 133 18 This concern can be seen in parts V and VI of Jurgen Habermas, The Structural Transformation of the Public Sphere, (Cambridge, MA: MIT Press, 1994), pp.141-235. Of course, this work was originally published in 1962. Habermas discusses changes in his view since that time in, “Further Reflections on the Public Sphere,” Habermas and the Public Sphere, ed. By Craig Calhoun, (Cambridge, MA: MIT Press, 1994), pp.421-461. 19 For a good example of this concern see: Ernest Gellner, Conditions of Liberty : Civil Society and Its Rivals, (New York: Viking Penguin Press, 1994). Gellner argues, pp.184-189 that the creation of a civil society in Eastern Europe is the most important component of establishing democracy there. By extension, civil society is the most important element of any democracy 20 Axel Honneth has raised a similar point in his debate with Nancy Fraser. He worries that critical theory tends to accept the complaints of successful new social movements on the basis of their political success rather than the philosophical merits of their arguments. See: Axel Honneth, “Redistribution as Recognition,” Redistribution or Recognition?, (New York: Verso, 2003), pp.114-117. 21 This issue is discussed by Jean Cohen,”Discourse Ethics and Civil Society,” in Universalism vs. Communitarianism ed.
