Abstract

Carlos S. Nino's liberalism evolved from his first works related to Criminal Law towards the construction of a theory of a deliberative democracy. Since his early work following classic liberal as John Stuart Mill, up to his final book in which he support egalitarianism, there were some structures that were articulated during this process: personal autonomy and other moral values in opposition to moral perfectionism. This paper presents Nino's liberalism and shows that this anti-perfectionism inspired by classic liberalism that was fundamental to building his concept of personal autonomy remained up to his final works. The point of the paper is to demonstrate that this anti-perfectionism continues to be a problem for his development of a theory of an egalitarian deliberative democracy.
