The article initially introduces the rationale of paralleling public journalism with adult education by discussing the congruence of aims, methods, and definitions of professional roles between public journalism and American pragmatist adult education. The authors use the methods of intellectual history to analyse the intervention in the public conduct of citizens, which the leading early proponents of public journalism, Jay Rosen and Davis Merritt, constructed. The article demonstrates that Rosen and Merritt's idea of intervention consists of two distinct elements. First, Rosenand Merritt urge journalists to animate social association and thus create prerequisites for citizens to recognise their public and political agency. Second, they suggest journalists to promote inclusive and solution-oriented public discussion among the citizenry. Adult education recognises both elements, yet the purpose Rosen and Merritt articulate for intervention is abstract and instrumental, compared to adult educational purposes, and their view on citizen empowerment is more restricted. The abstract ideal of public life, as opposed to the emancipation of persons, is at the centre of Rosen and Merritt's argumentČlanek proučuje formativna besedila o javnem novinarstvu, napisana v ZDA devetdesetih letih prejšnjega stoletja, tako da gradi na primerjavi z izobraževanjem odraslih. Primerjavo javnega novinarstva z izobraževanjem odraslih utemeljuje z obravnavo usklajenosti ciljev, metod in opredelitve strokovnih vlog, ki jih imata javno novinarstvo in ameriško pragmatistično izobraževanja odraslih. Pri proučevanju posega v javno ravnanje državljanov uporabita avtorici metode intelektualne zgodovine, ki sta jih konstruirala zgodnja zagovornika javnega novinarstva Jay Rosen in Davis Merritt. Avtorici dokazujeta, da je ideja Rosena in Merritta sestavljena iz dveh elementov. Prvič, Rosen in Merritt pozivata novinarje, naj oživijo družbeno združevanje in s tem za državljane ustvarijo razmere, v katerih lahko prepoznajo svoje javno in politično delovanje. Drugič, novinarjem predlagata, da spodbujajo vključujoče in k rešitvam usmerjene javne razprave med državljani. Izobraževanje odraslih prepoznava oba elementa, vendar je v primerjavi s smotri izobraževanja odraslih namen Rosenove in Merrittove artikulacije intervence abstrakten in instrumentalen, njun pogled na opolnomočenje državljanov pa bolj restriktiven. V nasprotju z idejo človeške emancipacije jev središču Rosenove in Merrittove argumentacije abstraktni ideal javnega življenjaTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaEvropski inštitut za komuniciranje in kulturo - EURICOM
