The paper discusses the Habermasian articulation between supranational democracy and human rights in the light of Kant's cosmopolitanism. For Habermas, the Kantian proposal of a cosmopolitan law was emblematic, but it is insufficient due to the lack of institutionalization and legalization of cosmopolitanism. In this way, going beyond Kant, Habermas proposes to renew cosmopolitanism from the institutionalization of a “supranational democracy” where citizens have equal status with national states.
