Summary/Abstract: The public sphere, a central habermasian concept, with capitalist origins, becomes the environment of political actors’ participation that allows mass communication. This article describes in detail the dichotomy and the various perspectives of public and private space, including the modern implications of media, primarily TV, regarding the reconfiguration of public space (social and political). In the modern age, the new mediated public space brings new facets of communication situations, including the political side.
