dc.subjectIn this paper, a new ethical theory on the permissibility of democratic deceit is defended. Political deceit is permissible based on three conditions: when one can reasonably claim the deceitful act not to lead to a decline in the level of political trust, the end to be realized directly concerns the realization or protection of citizens’ fundamental rights, and when there are no other political means available to achieve the desired end.
