프랑스 구체제기 공론영역과 정치여론

Abstract

This article searched critically the concept of Public Sphere of Jurgen Habermas. Habermas said that in 18th century France, appeared the Public Sphere which is realm of rational discourse that realized 'ideal discourse situation' mediated monarchical state and world of social life. But the realm was transformed structurally by appearing diverse mass media that are distorted by capitalist society after 19th century. The reason to consider the concept of Public Sphere so important is that because it was set up as preceding condition of modern democracy, it supplied new perspective to radical democracy.That is abstract sphere which founded on salons, academies, caf , theatre, franc-ma on loges of network voluntary associations and non-official sociabilit . Furthermore that was constituted by read of books, journals, press and conversation of polite. In consequence it is theoretical apparatus which revealed new socio-political consciousness in public sphere which separated from state and transcend family's private life which required by commercial secular life of individual of capitalist society. By this pre-supposition I examined religious-political struggles of (1) absolute monarchy vs Jansenist/Parlementary and (2) Philosophes vs Anti-philosophes. And concluded the first is realm of Reprasentative ffentlichkeit where representation and its content are contradicted. The second is bourgeois public sphere where philosophes/anti-philosophes' common interests are practiced in public opinion.(Yeungnam University/syjang25@hanmail.net)
