RESUMO

This study is an attempt to use TAYLORs and WALZERs communitarian theory to redefine the concept of citizenship, through the possibility of acceptable procedures and moral limits which may contribute for the inclusion of a politics of recognition as a propositional element in public policies, concerning disadvantaged social and cultural groups in the processes of distribution and accessibility of goods in the public space. The study was developed based on bibliographic research on the works of the two authors, trying to pinpoint: I what communitarian assumptions can be found in TAYLOR and WALZER; II what the main categories and concepts of the two authors are, as well as the possibilities of convergence and divergence between them; III what the moral limits and the acceptable procedures are, as well as the relation between those and the politics of recognition. In order to discuss the politics of recognition, authors such as HABERMAS, FRASER, HONNETH, SORIANO DIAZ, and THIEBAUT were used, among others. The methodology adopted was bibliographic research, aiming at identifying the creation (or not) of a convincing confrontational discourse toward instrumental reason and scientificism, proposed by the principle of universalistic equality, concerning the recognition of subjects. The analysis has examined, in the discourses of Charles Taylor and Michael Walzer, the concepts, resources and opportunities based on which different fields of analysis are built for social policies, i.e., the introduction of difference as a political and normative paradigm
