Resumen:
In this article I argue that Robert Alexy´s account of legal validity lacks sufficient support given the author´s methodological commitments. In that task I assess the plausibility of simultaneously maintaining that the participant´s perspective has conceptual privilege in the explanation of the nature of law, that legal discourse is a special case of general practical discourse, and that unjust considerations can be legally valid norms. The original title of this article was: ´La relevancia de la perspectiva del participante en la teoría de Robert Alexy´. I changed it for this publication, because I thought the new title shows better the idea at stake, after the reformulation of some of the main arguments of the paper as a result of the discussion in the Simposio Humboldt Bicentenario.
