    Gender Sphere of Concepts in the Postmodern Periodicals for Women and Men in Ukraine.Myroslava Chornodon, Olha Lesiuk, Tetiana Bailema, Nadiya Lanchukovska, Iryna Golubovska & Oksana Khapina - 2021 - Postmodern Openings 12 (3):426-445.
    The use of gender in print media is poorly understood both at the level of the post-Soviet journalism studies and in the general context of social research. A similar situation is observed with regard to the study of the gender sphere of concepts, and at the postmodern stage of development of periodicals. Postmodern convergence of methodology and research objects of the humanities will make it necessary to study social and mass media phenomena from the point of view of linguistics, (...)

    The concept of European public sphere within the European public discourse.Sanja Ivic - 2017 - Etikk I Praksis - Nordic Journal of Applied Ethics 2 (2):79-94.
    This inquiry analyzes the concept of ‘European public sphere’ within the European public discourse. In particular, it explores the European Communication Strategy for creating active European citizenship and European public sphere. The European Commission’s Plan D for Democracy, Dialogue and Debate failed, because it employed homogeneous and static concepts of public sphere and European values. In this way it reduced deliberation to a mere debate. The European Year of Citizens was not sufficiently successful for the same (...)

    Changing Femininity, Changing Concepts of Citizenship in Public and Private Spheres.Gabrielle Ivinson, Kiki Deliyanni, Helena Araújo & Madeleine Arnot - 2000 - European Journal of Women's Studies 7 (2):149-168.
    This article reports on an EU-funded project conducted in Greece, Portugal, England and Wales. Data were collected from male and female student teachers using surveys, interviews and focus groups. The project investigated their understanding of citizenship and the role of men and women in public and private life. Pateman's concept of a sexual contractwas used to discover how student teachers understood changing relations between men and women. Young professionals in each country had relatively similar representations of the public (...), which was seen as a distant sphere in which masculine power was unchallenged. The tension between power and femininity was articulated differently by men and women. Cross-national comparisons revealed how women in different European countries struggle over gender relations in family life and in everyday social contexts. Although gender relations are changing, the primary context for female citizenship is still predominantly the family. The sexual contract remains therefore a key theme to be considered in relation to the education of citizens. (shrink)

    Psychological Aspects of the Study of Gender Sphere of Concept in the Media.Myroslava Chornodon, Nataliia Leonova, Tetyana Doronina, Olha Yadlovska, Ellina Tsykhovska & Viktoriia Zarva - 2022 - Postmodern Openings 13 (1):103-130.
    The changes that have affected all spheres of society have also affected the existing stereotypes of gender behaviour, so the issue of the place and role of men and women in society focuses on research on the aspirations, interests and preferences of both sexes. Gender issues are studied in an interdisciplinary aspect, so recently there have been many studies in which the subject of discussion concerns different fields of science - psychology, philosophy, linguistics, journalism, sociology, political science and many others.

    An Unending Sphere of Relation: Martin Buber’s Conception of Personhood.Sarah Scott - 2014 - Forum Philosophicum: International Journal for Philosophy 19 (1):5-25.
    I reconstruct Buber’s conception of personhood and identify in his work four criteria for personhood— uniqueness, wholeness, goodness, and a drive to relation—and an account of three basic degrees of personhood, stretching, as a kind of “chain of being,” from plants and animals, through humans, to God as the absolute person. I show that Buber’s “new” conception of personhood is rooted in older Neoplatonic notions, such the goodness of all being and the principle of plenitude. While other philosophers have used (...)

    Habermas and the public sphere: Rethinking a key theoretical concept.Patrick O’Mahony - 2021 - European Journal of Social Theory 24 (4):485-506.
    The challenge of realizing the democratic power of publics through public sphere remains acute but not hopeless. While claiming that Habermas communicative social theory offers a way forward in spite of a productive but constraining turn towards a modified social liberal frame, nonetheless three limitations of the theory are identified. The first bears on the insufficiency of the sociological evolutionist description of society relevant to the public sphere drawn from classical sociological accounts of differentiation and integration. The second (...)

    Mindfulness in the birth sphere: practice for pre-conception to the critical 1000 days and beyond.Lorna Davies & Susan Crowther (eds.) - 2023 - New York, NY: Routledge.
    Mindfulness and the Birth Sphere draws together and critically appraises a raft of emerging research around mindfulness in healthcare, looking especially at its relevance to pregnancy and childbirth. This is an essential read for all those interested in mindfulness in connection to pregnancy and childbirth, including midwives, doulas, doctors and birth activists, whether involved in practice, research or education.

    Missional discipleship is more than a movement seeking a new methodological and strategic mission paradigm. Missional discipleship is the essence of Christianity concerning the ontological foundation for the prime reason for existence as believers and the epistemological lens to see the world from the perspective of transformed values in Christ. In other words, missional discipleship requires acknowledging the lordship of Christ by demonstrating the ontological embodiment of who Christ is and epistemological resemblance by perceiving the reality as Christ does. These (...)

  14. Two spheres of domination: Republican theory, social norms and the insufficiency of negative freedom.Alan M. S. J. Coffee - 2015 - Contemporary Political Theory 14 (1):45-62.
    Republicans understand freedom as the guaranteed protection against any arbitrary use of coercive power. This freedom is exercised within a political community, and the concept of arbitrariness is defined with reference to the actual ideas of its citizens about what is in their shared interests. According to many current defenders of the republican model, this form of freedom is understood in strictly negative terms representing an absence of domination. I argue that this assumption is misguided. First, it is internally (...)

  15. What's political or cultural about political culture and the public sphere? Toward an historical sociology of concept formation.Margaret R. Somers - 1995 - Sociological Theory 13 (2):113-144.
    The English translation of Habermas's The Structural Transformation of the Public Sphere converges with a recent trend toward the revival of the "political culture concept" in the social sciences. Surprisingly, Habermas's account of the Western bourgeois public sphere has much in common with the original political culture concept associated with Parsonian modernization theory in the 1950s and 1960s. In both cases, the concept of political culture is used in a way that is neither political nor (...)

    Anthropological sphere of human existence: Restrictions on human rights during pandemic threats.V. S. Blikhar & I. M. Zharovska - 2020 - Anthropological Measurements of Philosophical Research 18:49-61.
    Purpose. The article is aimed to study the anthropological, socio-philosophical and philosophical-legal dimensions of the ontological sphere of human life within the discourse of restricting human rights during pandemic threats. To do this, one should solve a number of tasks, among which are the following: 1) to explore the anthropological and praxeological understanding of fear as a primary component of human existence in a pandemic, which prevents people from changing their lives for the better and healthier, having fun and (...)

    Spheres: Towards a Techno-Social Ontology of Place/s.Sascha Rashof - 2018 - Theory, Culture and Society 35 (6):131-152.
    This review presents a systematic reading of Peter Sloterdijk’s Spheres trilogy, as part of a larger project to develop a techno-social ontology of place/s. Arguing against universalising theories of time and space, including Sloterdijk’s own conception of Spheres as ‘Being and Space’, this essay reads the trilogy through a ‘platial’ framework. While commenting on some of the shortcomings of the official English translations, the three volumes are being worked through methodically – Bubbles (micro spherology), Globes (macro spherology) and Foams (plural (...)

    Church In The Public Sphere: Production Of Meaning Between Rational And Irrational.Stefan Bratosin - 2014 - Journal for the Study of Religions and Ideologies 13 (38):3-20.
    In the public sphere and especially in the media, the discourse on the Church and about the Church on faith and religion is often tainted by the confusion of meaning due, among other things, to the mutual borrowing less rigorous – epistemologically and methodologically – of the concepts which engage various disciplines (theology, sociology, anthropology, political science, information and communication science, and so on) who take possession of problematic centered on the relation between mankind and divinity. This article presents (...)

    The sphere as heart. Medieval cardiality and erototope in the philosophy of Peter Sloterdijk.Leopoldo Edgardo Tillería Aqueveque - 2024 - Ideas Y Valores 73 (185):47-58.
    Peter Sloterdijk’s theory of the spheres is confronted with the idea that there is in it an erotic foundation that would determine to a great extent the understanding of the spherical cosmos. The argument resorts to the concepts of medieval spherical cardiality and erototope to demonstrate that the exegetical, hermeneutic, and sometimes mythological form that the Sloterdijkian account acquires, oriented in principle to explain the existence of Homo sapiens according to an ultra-technological foundation, could perhaps be better understood as an (...)

    Spheres of Citizenship.Yishai Blank - 2007 - Theoretical Inquiries in Law 8 (2):411-452.
    The Article argues that, contrary to its state-centered conception, citizenship is determined, managed and controlled in three distinct yet intertwined territorial spheres: the local, the national and the global. Without claiming that the national sphere is vanishing or becoming irrelevant for the determination of rights, duties, group belonging and participation in public life, I argue that sub-national territorial units as well as supranational political organizations are increasingly impacting citizenship. All three spheres take part in deciding who shall be entitled (...)

  21. Social Media Filters and Resonances: Democracy and the Contemporary Public Sphere.Hartmut Rosa - 2022 - Theory, Culture and Society 39 (4):17-35.
    Democratic conceptions of politics are tacitly or explicitly predicated upon a functioning arena for the formation of public opinion in an associated media-space. Policy-making thus requires a reliable connection to processes of ‘public’ will formation. These processes formed the focus for Habermas’s influential study on the public sphere. This contribution presents a look at more recent ‘structural transformation’, the causes of which are by no means limited to social media communication, and examines its consequences. It proceeds in three steps: (...)

    Moving beyond and between disciplines and the effects of technology on our lives, this presents a new perspective and a transdisciplinary exploration of humanity’s ‘being in this world.’ The reflections on our logical, physical, and metaphysical evolution challenge our illusions about humanity’s competence to overcome disparities between the way we live and the way we develop. The novel concept of evolutionary cognition evolving in three spheres sets new guidelines for a sensible and holistic evaluation of the drastic challenges we (...)

    Corporate Public Spheres between Refeudalization and Revitalization.Ulrich Brinkmann, Heiner Heiland & Martin Seeliger - 2022 - Theory, Culture and Society 39 (4):75-90.
    The article critically analyses the gaps and the analytical potential in Jürgen Habermas’s The Structural Transformation of the Public Sphere concerning corporate discourses and debates. It is shown that Habermas only analyses the field of work in abstract terms, neglecting in particular corporate public spheres. In contrast, corporate public spheres are developed as an analytical concept, expressed by companies in the form of institutionalized co-determination, situationally granted opportunities for participation and self-willed public spheres of workers. These three fields (...)

  24. Designing spheres of informational justice.Michael Nagenborg - 2009 - Ethics and Information Technology 11 (3):175-179.
    J. van den Hoven suggested to analyse privacy from the perspective of informational justice, whereby he referred to the concept of distributive justice presented by M.

In this article I will analyse the challenges of applying Walzer’s concept to issues of informational privacy. I will also discuss the (...)

    Critique of the Public Sphere: A Kantian Measure of the Enlightenment of Societies.Martin Hammer - 2021 - Con-Textos Kantianos 14:344-368.
    I propose a method of assessing the degree of enlightenment of a society based on its discourses. My hypothesis is that the more objectivity prevails in a society’s spheres of discourse, the more enlightened it is; the more subjectivity dominates, the more unenlightened. This relationship can be made evident through the reconstruction of Kant’s Theory of Prejudice by taking into account the handwritten notes and fragments and the lectures on logic. First, I will discuss some key aspects of Kant’s (...) of prejudice. Secondly, I will address the epistemological function of the public sphere in order to show what conditions it must satisfy to fulfil its function. Thirdly, I will argue that not only Selbstdenken but also participatory reason, and therefore the public sphere itself, are both fundamental elements of enlightenment in that they function as counter-maxims against prejudice.

    The public sphere in the mode of systematically distorted communication.Victor Kempf - 2024 - Philosophy and Social Criticism 50 (1):43-65.
    The contemporary proliferation of “filter bubbles” and “echo chambers” seems to render obsolete the notion of a public sphere in the singular. In my article, I would like to argue against this view: Following Jürgen Habermas, “the public sphere” can be understood as the concomitant horizon of communicative action, while the latter permeates society as a whole. On the basis of this socio-philosophical approach, the omnipresent tendencies toward fragmentation appear as reactive attempts to ward off this socially established (...)

For an updated brief, albeit cogent and analytically lucid presentation of the Law Framework ontology, see Clouser ( 2009 ).

Contrariwise, Gabriel Marcel and Pierre Boutang show that transcendence draws a path that the Christian viator – a notion explained throughout this article – has to take using the (...)

    The political public sphere is important for democracy, and it is changing – this is how the quintessence of Jürgen Habermas’s monumental study on The Structural Transformation of the Public Sphere (1989) could be summarized in simple words. In the fields of political sociology and social theory, history, but also research on social movements, cultural studies, and media and communication studies, his conception of the public sphere as a sphere mediating between the state and civil society (...)

    Transnationalizing the Public Sphere.Oscar Ugarteche - 2007 - Theory, Culture and Society 24 (4):65-69.
    As a critical concept, the public sphere has always been premised on two idealizing assumptions: in principle, public opinion should be normatively legitimate and politically efficacious. Yet these assumptions are hard to associate with the discursive arenas we today call ‘transnational public spheres’, which neither stage communication among equal citizens nor address it to sovereign states. In this context, public sphere theory is in danger of losing its critical thrust and political point. Aiming to recover its critical (...)

    The internet could be an efficient political instrument if it were seen as part of a democracy where free and open discourse within a vital public sphere plays a decisive role. The model of deliberative democracy, as developed by Jürgen Habermas and Seyla Benhabib, serves this concept of democracy best. The paper explores first the model of deliberative democracy as a ‘two-track model’ in which representative democracy is backed by the public sphere and a developing civil society. (...)

    Seventeenth-Century Pamphlets as Constituents of a Public Communications Space: A Historical Critique of Public Sphere Theory.Pascal Verhoest - 2019 - Theory, Culture and Society 36 (1):47-62.
    A public sphere in which people can freely discuss worldly affairs is arguably an essential building block of deliberative democracies. As a theoretical and historical concept, however, the public sphere concept is far from unequivocal. This article reviews Habermasian public sphere theory and particularly his failure, according to critics, to establish the ‘bourgeois public sphere’ as an historical category. It provides a more realistic historical account that helps to reframe contemporary conceptions of the public (...)

    In this paper I examine Axel Honneth’s normative reconstruction of the market as a sphere of social freedom in his 2014 book, Freedom’s Right. Honneth’s position is complex: on the one hand, he acknowledges that modern capitalist societies do not realise social freedom; on the other hand, he insists that the promise of social freedom is implicit in the market sphere. In fact, the latter explains why modern subjects have seen capitalism as legitimate. I will reconstruct Honneth’s conception (...)

    This essay examines the concepts of ‘professionalism’ and ‘ethics’ as they are used in health professions education and, in particular, medical education. It proposes that, in order to make sense of the construct of ‘professional ethics,’ it would be helpful to conceive of professionalism and ethics as overlapping but not identical spheres. By allowing for areas of professionalism that are not directly pertinent to ethics, and areas of ethics that are not directly pertinent to the professional sphere, ‘professional ethics’ (...)

In this paper, I examine a set of conceptual and illustrative tools used by Dalton in developing his theory as well as in presenting it to the public in printed form as well as in his many public lectures. These tools—the concept of (...)

    This article critically addresses current debates on the digital transformation of the public sphere. It responds to two contrasting responses to this transformation: the school of destruction, which expresses pessimism about the design of social media, and the school of restoration, which advocates for the redesign of social media to align with normative conceptions of the public sphere. However, so far these responses have omitted an explicit philosophical reflection on the relationship between politics, technology and design. After tracing (...)

    In the essay, I present a few of arguments for the thesis that the appreciation of the title areas of subjectivity – intentionality, sensitivity, and memory – by putting them due attention in the structure of the epistemic situation, should as result in a thorough redefinition of epistemology and its basic categories. At the same time, I am arguing for the primacy of epistemic subjectivism regarding objectivity or intersubiectivism. Thus, I present the outline of the modifications to which the (...) of the epistemological situation should be subjected. (shrink)

  44. The Public Sphere.Amy Allen - 2012 - Political Theory 40 (6):822-829.
    In his "Structural Transformation of the Public Sphere," Habermas is notoriously and selectively blind to gender subordination – most centrally, the ways in which the bourgeois public sphere was founded upon the exclusion of women. Nancy Fraser articulated four specific assumptions involving the bourgeois public sphere that need to be recast in order to make the concept of the public sphere serviceable for feminist critical theory. However, subsequent historical, political and theoretical developments – specifically relating (...)

    The structural transformation of the scientific public sphere: Constitution and consequences of the path towards open access.Leonhard Dobusch & Maximilian Heimstädt - 2024 - Philosophy and Social Criticism 50 (1):216-238.
    We are currently witnessing a fundamental structural transformation of the scientific public sphere, characterized by processes of specialization, metrification, internationalization, platformization and visibilization. In contrast to explanations of this structural transformation that invoke a technological determinism, we demonstrate its historical contingency by drawing on analytic concepts from organization theory and the case of the Open Access transformation in Germany. The digitization of academic journals has not broadened access to scientific output but narrowed it down even further in the course (...)

    Towards a New Sphere of Practices and Knowledge: The Militarization of Meteorology in Francoist Spain.Aitor Anduaga - 2013 - Science in Context 26 (1):31-59.
    ArgumentThis paper analyzes the concept ofmilitarizationin both senses of the word, that of mobilization for war and that of social control exercised by military forces. During the Spanish Civil War (1936–1939), the role and nature of meteorology was transformed by the rebel band on the basis of the mythification of a Service model that was supported by victory and that would be projected as a paradigm for the postwar years. The newServicio Meteorológico Nacionalreflected the social control exerted by the (...)

    Concepts of construction and technological solutions for methods of operative transfer of data of field researches from agricultural sites to the remote database of storage of data with a possibility of feedback.Pisarenko V., Pisarenko U., Koval A. & Varava I. - 2020 - Artificial Intelligence Scientific Journal 25 (1):57-64.
    A feature of the agro-industrial sphere is the high probability of distribution of production or research sites in areas far from each other for a considerable distance. Moreover, the center for collecting information and processing it, as a rule, is concentrated in one compact place. For research institutions, this feature often acquires a state of rather urgent problem, which requires the search for new innovative approaches. The paper proposes elements of the concept of construction and technological solutions for (...)

    Beyond the Digital Public Sphere: Towards a Political Ontology of Algorithmic Technologies.Jordi Viader Guerrero - 2024 - Philosophy and Technology 37 (3):1-23.
    The following paper offers a political and philosophical reading of ethically informed technological design practices to critically tackle the implicit regulative ideal in the design of social media as a means to digitally represent the liberal public sphere. The paper proposes that, when it comes to the case of social media platforms, understood along with the machine learning algorithms embedded in them as algorithmic technologies, ethically informed design has an implicit conception of democracy that parallels that of Jürgen Habermas’ (...)

    The concept of cultural sovereignty in the structure of the Foundations of State Cultural Policy.Sergey Aleksandrovich Pilyak - forthcoming - Philosophy and Culture (Russian Journal).
    Cultural heritage, which serves as a substratum of national identity, forms the right of the state to its own sovereignty. The substantiated proof of the possibility of independence from other cultures and nations has relatively recently entered the conceptual field of the philosophy of culture. In January 2023, significant changes made to the Foundations of the state Cultural Policy took into account the concept of cultural sovereignty and, to the necessary extent, justified its high importance for the development of (...)
