| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立中央大學 === 哲學研究所 === 98 === In Taiwan we are proud of our democratic achievement. But we always can see the two main parties battle for their own private interest and bad quality of the decision-making. Recently there is an obvious deliberative turn about the research of democratic theory. Deliberative democracy tries to resolve many problems about liberal democracy and advocates a better model of political participation. In short, the ideal of deliberative democracy is that decision-making must come from the discussion among the free and equal citizens. The content of the deliberative ideal is influenced by Jürgen Habermas. So it causes me to do research about Habermas’ theory. Based on his early discourse ethics theory developed around 80’s, Habermas tries to reconstruct the principle of institutional democratic state and brings out his model of deliberative democratic theory: deliberative politics. Habermas seeks to recast concepts like popular sovereignty in the terms of the higher-level intersubjectivity of communication processes that flow through both the parliamentary bodies and the informal networks of the public sphere. According to this he brings out his two-track model of democracy. The decision-making and legislative institution must feed back to the public opinion formed in the public sphere.
