Beschreibung
The project aims to offer the new model of democracy through reconstructing several foundations of actual liberal democracies. There are various symptoms that liberal democracy is in crisis – among them are the decline of electoral participation, the rise of far-right movements, the strengthening of illiberal regimes and conflicts generated by them. As a response to this global crisis, I propose ‘feminist democracy’ – the model which is constructed by looking into the theoretical flaws and weaknesses of normative liberal theory, the foundational ideas of liberal democracy, and offers their reconstruction in feminist terms. Following this aim, my objectives are to reconstruct the ideas of autonomy, identity and citizenship. Consequently, the normative theoretical framework of the dissertation consists of the proposed ideas of relational autonomy and collective autonomy, ‘identity’ as an ethical-normative concept and a feminist-republican model of citizenship in heterogeneous societies. Thus, the research aims to create a normative theory of democracy. The research is theoretical and involves no empirical elements.
