The article carries out a historical philosophical analysis of the influence of I. Berlin’s ideas on the modern liberal philosophy by case study of the epistemological democracy an intellectual movement, developing in the framework of the deliberative democracy. Deliberative democracy is considered as a model that arose around the realization of pluralism ideas, while the epistemological democracy is interpreted as a response to the challenge of diversity. The author proves that by making the pluralism the basic assumption, the deliberative democracy (as well as Berlin) goes from substantialism to proceduralism.
