ABSTRACT

The existing public sphere does not play a role in dealing with women's issues in the global age. In this context, Seyla Benhabib's deliberative democracy and multicultural politics and Iris Young’s communicative democracy and its application to multiculturalism seem to be alternative to the state-based public sphere and communication behavior theory. However, the two have limitations in terms of the normative legitimacy in that there should be no one excluded from the communication of the public sphere and the political efficacy that the results of the public debate should be returned to law or policy. Thus, to embrace cultural minorities in a multicultural era, including women, we must not give up the ideal of embracing the heterogeneous public in public spheres and creating mutually agreed standards.
