New words have found their way into the public sphere: we now commonly talk about “confinement”, “barrier-gesture” or “distancing”. The very idea of public space has been transformed: with restrictions on movement and interaction in public; with the reintegration of lives (certain lives) into the home (if there is one) and private space; with the publicization of private space through internet relationships; with the cities’ space occupied, during confinement, by so-called “essential” workers; with the restriction of gatherings and political demonstrations in public space. With these and other recent changes, it is imperative to revisit the concept of public space, which continues to be used as if it were self-evident, despite its profound transformation over the past few decades, in a process of realization and “literalization”. No longer just a comfortable metaphor for reasonable debates, public space has become a concrete reality in the 21th century. This transformation in the various phenomena, such as the occupation of squares and public spaces; the demand for spaces of conversation and expression for those without a voice; the transition of private matters into the public realm through verbal expression; and the expression and circulation of public issues within popular cultures. As a result, the question of public space is increasingly intertwined with that of private spaces, such as the home or individual subjectivities, forming an internal, logical relationship.

生活方式和公共空间

新词已经进入公共领域：我们现在通常谈论“限制”、“障碍手势”或“疏远”。公共空间的概念已经发生了转变：限制公共场所的活动和互动；随着生活（某些生活）重新融入家庭（如果有的话）和私人空间；通过互联网关系公开私人空间；在隔离期间，城市空间被所谓的“必要”工人占据；限制公共场所的集会和政治示威。随着这些和其他最近的变化，我们有必要重新审视公共空间的概念，尽管它在过去几十年里发生了深刻的转变，但在实现和“字面化”的过程中，公共空间的概念仍然被使用，就好像它是不言而喻的一样。 。公共空间不再只是合理辩论的舒适隐喻，它已成为 21 世纪的具体现实。这种转变体现在各种现象上，例如占领广场和公共空间；那些没有声音的人对对话和表达空间的需求；通过口头表达将私人事务转变为公共领域；以及大众文化中公共问题的表达和传播。结果，公共空间问题与家庭或个人主体性等私人空间问题日益交织在一起，形成一种内在的逻辑关系。
