The paper highlights how participatory decision-making practices inspired by the principles of governance constitute partial public spheres in which the community actors can discuss and address collective problems; engage in sense-making processes; and negotiate norms and principles. The author suggests that the relationships with the other and the collective knowledge building processes - assumed as the fundamental dimensions of togetherness can be read through the lens of Marková’s (2003) dialogical model of social knowledge, which emphasizes the tensive nature of social relationship and its capability of engendering shared knowledge.
Keywords: Governance, inclusive decision-making processes, dialogism, dialogical model of social knowledge, dialogical universalism, public sphere.
