Abstract

A conception of militant democracy must be recovered and ready to be put into practice in order to solve problems. This requires to see democracy as a substance (an ideal of equal liberty) rather than as a mere decisional process (majority rule). All things considered, the method of majority rule derives of that substance and is only justified to the extent that suits it. That is why democracy matters mainly as a yard stick to measure the degree of fairness of public decisions, and solely after that because of the majority rule with which they have been adopted. Obviously, the political equality of citizens must be embodied in democratic methods, but even before, that same equality must be achieved in their results. So we reject the usual confusion between democracy and majoritarianism, one of whose main exponents would be J. Waldron.
