The essay discusses Habermas' defense of cosmopolitic rights. Using Carl Schmitt's categories and the principle of political realism, the author shows the limits of Habermas' idea of human rights as legal rights and not simply as moral rights. The impossibility for Habermas to find a solution to tha difficult relationship between moral and legal dimensions of human rights proves that the theory of human rights is a mere ideology.

Abstract

The essay discusses Habermas' defense of cosmopolitic rights. Using Carl Schmitt's categories and the principle of political realism, the author shows the limits of Habermas' idea of human rights as legal rights and not simply as moral rights. The impossibility for Habermas to find a solution to tha difficult relationship between moral and legal dimensions of human rights proves that the theory of human rights is a mere ideology.
