La médiatisation de l'espace privé

Mediatizing» privacy During «reality shows» on television, real-life persons bare their private problems and feelings. How do they expose themselves during this sort of intimate broadcast ? The ways range from therapeutically staging experiences through attempting to solve practical difficulties to testifying about the social problems exemplified by the persons in these broadcasts. Although this «public space» is no longer oriented only toward having experts and representatives of the people define the general interest, the invasion of this space by intimacy must not be seen as its destruction, nor as a danger for democracy. This «intimate television» must be seen as redefining public space, by shifting the bounds between the private and public spheres so as to bring to light problems of identity and experiences that have, till now, been kept in the confines of privacy
