- Abstract
The public sphere remains one of the central concepts of discussions about democracy. One of the most impressive debates in more recent times is Nancy Fraser's interpretation of the possibility of a transnational public sphere theory in light of current historical developments. Especially under the conditions of globalization, classical public sphere theory, which was conceptualized in the logic of the territorial nation-state, lost its function. Neither the subject of the public sphere can be restricted any longer by the citizen not even the addressee of the public opinion by the nation-state as public power. The destiny of democracies depends on the reconstruction of public sphere theory under current conditions. According to Fraser, a critical public sphere theory needed in the 21st century has to be based on a transnational idea of publicity from a post-Westphalian perspective, in which the concepts of normative legitimacy and political effectiveness are reconstructed. This article discusses the evolution of reconstructing a critical public sphere theory from Nancy Fraser's articles "Rethinking the Public Sphere: A Contribution to the Critique of Really Existing Democracy (1991)," written in a Westphalian framework, to "Transnationalizing the Public Sphere: On the Legitimacy and Efficacy of Public Opinion in a Post-Westphalian World (2007).".
