Abstract
Based on Herbert Wechsler’s questioning in relation to the appropriateness of criticism by ordinary citizens of the decisions taken by the authorities who govern them, this paper proposes an interdisciplinary response to this particular jurist by using the philosophy of responsibility, the pillars of accountability and the limits of the presidential system in order to legitimize social control over public management.
