Abstract: This article aims to describe, in a perfunctory way, the theories related to procedural justice of JohnRawls and Jürgen Habermas, confronting them with the recent discoveries brought by neuroscience.For this, a brief summary of parts of the work of these philosophers will be made, specifically seekingto isolate the rational element required in both theories. Afterwards, it will be tried to deconstruct thenotion of modern rationality included in them, from brief considerations about the Herbert Simon’sconcept of limited rationality. Following, it will be shown the search of how man is deceived from thesenses and and how this limited cognition of reality affects political decisions. Finally, by way of aconclusion, it will be suggested the need to (re) visit the theories of John Rawls and Jürgen Habermaswith the tools provided by the new studies of human mind and rationality
