This article updates the central concepts of Jürgen Habermas, theoretical current thinker called Frankfurt School, in order to analyze aspects of law and contemporary Brazilian society. To this end it carries out a review of the theories of communicative action and discourse ethics, important elements of Habermas's conception, which pervade the Philosophy, Sociology and Legal Science. The article considers these three indissoluble perspectives and includes when analyzing aspects of the law and social life: development and vitality of democracy, public sphere and validity of the legal norm. It notes that Habermas's school is well known for its complexity, as it integrates different segments of thoughts and theories. It concludes that it is through the exercise of rationality that will be possible to build reliable knowledge and universal moral norms. The law as social mediation instrument needs to be legitimized and validated by discursive way, based on ethical and moral rationales, principles renewed by the Habermas modernity ideology.
