Abstract
Contrary to a widely held conviction, there is no pre-established harmony between democracy and justice. Theoretical and empirical illustrations are provided in order to highlight the ways in which democracy may clash with justice. It is argued that the former, in contrast to the latter, is not to be viewed as a value in itself. If we wish to harmonize them, the important question to ask is which among the numerous democratic setups is the most capable of ensuring the implementation of justice.
