POGGI, FRANCESCA; SARDO, ALESSIO y MATEOS DURAN, Arnulfo Daniel. Do the Right Thing! - Robert Alexy and the Claim to Correctness. Rev. Derecho Estado [online]. 2023, n.56, pp.5-42. Epub 15-Mayo-2023. ISSN 0122-9893. https://doi.org/10.18601/01229893.n56.01.
This essay aims to evaluate the argument from the claim of correctness proposed by Robert Alexy in defence of his inclusive non-positivism. The argument from correctness postulates that participants within a legal system necessarily lay claim to correctness, where "participant" is to be understood as somebody who is seeking the correct legal answer inside a given normative system. Through a comparison with Moore's Paradox, it will be proposed that an expression of will (or desire), rather than a claim to correctness, is involved in every normative speech act. The latter, with the aim to overturn the thesis according to which every legal speech act claims correctness.
Palabras clave : Claim to correctness; legal speech act; Moore's Paradox; argument of injustice.
