Description
The inclusion of social reflexivity in the relation between the justification and the application of norms makes it possible to give its full place to ethical normativity, which is often marginalised by technical normativity, whether instrumental or procedural. The aim of alternative governance integrating the relationship between justification and context is that of building a common good. It requires going beyond the implicit postulate of the absence of contradiction between maximising individual happiness and public common interest. It suggests reflecting on the possible objectivation of the conditions necessary to satisfy the requirements of such a public interest"(Mayntz) to highlight the democratic, deliberative and practical dimensions of an ethical form of Internet governance.
