Merleau-Ponty's Concept of «Intersubjectivity» A Notion Reflected Within the Modern Democratic Society

This paper aims to discuss the cultivation of democratic citizenship in terms of dignity, diversity and solidarity closely intertwined  with Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s philosophical  concept of intersubjectivity as a par excellence  theory of the human being. Furthermore, the  author points out that political philosophy  requires a paradigm shift from subjectivity to  the intersubjective dimension of subjectivity in  order to achieve decency and dignity of  institutions and human relations.
