This paper aims at criticizing the Jürgen Habermas’ approach to the relationship among
capitalism, democracy and crises. To do so, at first it presents na overview of this approach
and its changes over the decades. The fundamental hypothesis that results from this
overview is that Habermas progressively puts himself at a paralyzing crossroads, constituted
by the amalgam that these three concepts – capitalism, democracy and crises – form
nowadays; faced with the options to get out of this crossroads, Habermas hesitates.
Therefore, in the second part of the paper, it presents some elements of the Eduardo
Albuquerque’s economic theory that could encourage Habermas – or at least his social
theory – to abandon his paralyzing crossroads.
