Thèses sur la théorie des media dans "Théorie de l'agir communicationnel" rapportée à la théorie du droit dans "Droit et démocratie"

Habermas conceives the money-medium from the perspective of communicative action as a « derivative form » which has not to fulfill the complex demands of social integration, but only those of a systemintegration. The « law form » (Rechtsform) links the life world (Lebenswelt) with the system, as a partial embodiment of communicative rationality. But does private law, as the core of the system of law, correspond to this concept ? The opposite method is to develop money from the economic point of view, and law according to the model of « Verdopplung », as practiced by Marx with the value form and the money form.
