Abstract

Taylor believes that in the middle (centre) of occidental modernity is a new moral sense which arises with the market economy, the public sphere and the people self governance. The institutions and structures of an industrial technological society hardly limit the choices that force societies as well as individuals to attribute to instrumental reason the importance that they never would give them through a serious moral reflection. The taylorian perspective of authenticity moves the social-political reality into an absolute articulated context with values, meanings and cultural goods. In this, the governance finds nice places and overcomes the post-modern impasses and will clearly be the proposer of valuable choices permeated by recognition of identities and multiculturalism.
