The paper shows that discourse for Alexy is essentially a regulated activity. A model of certain rulesensure the rationality and correctness of practical discourse oriented towards resolving conflicts of value. Firstly, the types of rules responsible for the rationality of practical argumentation are described. Secondly, some openproblems relating to the claim to correctness of reasoned practical discourse are posed, namely problems derived from the idea of consensus and that of a single correct answer to certainpractical issues that include conflicts ofvalues and raise basic disagreements.
