Guided by an elitist view toward the masses, traditional theories argue that the public takes place only in opposition to the state yet cannot be trusted to run society on its own. Such a normative ideal, while perhaps inherently troubling, is more irrelevant in a world defined by globalisation. In particular, several social movements and governments in Latin America offer analternate approach to conceptualising the relationship between the public and the state - a model whereby the two work in tandem to run society. Such moves, critically examined here, are particularly fueled by neoliberal economic policiesTeorije javnega mnenja so vodili nejasni in protislovni odnosi med javno sfero in državo. Pod vplivom elitističnega pogleda na množice tradicionalne teorije dokazujejo, da javnost deluje le v opoziciji državi, ne more pa sama voditi družbe. Tak normativni ideal postaja neveljaven v svetu, ki ga določa globalizacija. Zlasti številna družbena gibanja in vlade v Latinski Ameriki ponujajo alternativno konceptualizacijo odnosa med javnostjo in državo - model, pri katerem obe delujeta skupaj pri vodenju družbe. Tako delovanje, ki ga članek kritično analizira, je predvsem reakcija na neoliberlano ekonomsko politikoTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaEvropski inštitut za komuniciranje in kulturo - EURICOM
