Based on Habermas' most current book, the article seeks to understand how the communicational process of reciprocal justification can feed public communication capable of articulating the formation of the autonomous political subject to the cooperative process of seeking to define the public interest. Habermas invites us not to leave aside our experiences and the process of flowering our self-understanding, but to articulate the singular experience with the search for the moral point of view necessary for reciprocal justification. Facing the devastation of lives and societies governed by neoliberalism, and considering the increase in hatred, the rejection of differences, gender, class and racial prejudices and the valorization of individualist and meritocratic policies, thinking about the role of public spheres as a central process to deliberative democracies require public communication supported by reflexivity, a network of public spheres that allows all participants the chance to constantly reconsider and redefine their shared horizon of experimentation and collective agency.
