Abstract

Looking to extend the idea of a principle of publicity beyond its strict critical-political model, commonly referred by the Public Sphere, this paper considers the public quality as a universal constant of social life. It is precisely because publicness is a fundamental communicational dimension of society’s organization that it shall be here considered as an archetype. The archetypal publicness suggests that it should be conceived not only according to its historical insights (for example, the Bourgeois Public Sphere) but also according to a major socio-anthropological operation that different societies, in each time, operationalize.
