This as opposed to the Private Sphere such as family, the marketplace and Government Structures. The Public Sphere is a place common to all. It is in this Public Sphere where ideas and information can be exchanged. This public debate is defined as the expression of views on matters that are of concern to the public—often, but not always, with opposing or diverging views being expressed by participants in the discussion. Sharing of ideas in the Public Sphere between individuals without the overview of authority allowed for the creation and critique of ideas without fear of traditional authority figures.
