Democratic practices have their places; democracy is spatial in its very nature. From this perspective, the study of democracy can be developed as an analytical description of the places where democratic dialogue is practiced. The issue of dialogue practices, which are of educational character and become one of the versions of public pedagogy, which is especially needed in the current time of the assault on public space, defines the profile of these studies. Hence, in the text, I propose a direction of thinking that draws attention to the educational value of democratic commonality and inscribes it in the pedagogical reflection around the common places. Finally, I describe an area of pedagogical thought and educational practices which I call the “pedagogy of the common places” – the spatial version of the public pedagogy. Specifically, the paper – by asking why, why now? and answering through discussing practices of the nationalization of public sphere, and the recent rise of nationalism in Poland – will explore how the educational, spatial perspective can be fruitful as sketching new forms of thinking and doing democracy.

民主运作的空间方式：关于公共场所的教学法。为什么，为什么是现在？

民主实践有其一席之地；民主本质上是空间的。从这个角度来看，对民主的研究可以发展为对实行民主对话的地方的分析性描述。对话实践的问题具有教育性质，成为公共教育学的一种版本，在当前公共空间受到攻击的时代尤其需要，这定义了这些研究的概况。因此，在文本中，我提出了一个思考方向，即关注民主共性的教育价值，并将其铭刻在围绕共性的教学反思中。最后，我描述了一个我称之为“公共场所教育学”的教学思想和教育实践领域——公共教育学的空间版本。具体来说，论文——通过问为什么，为什么现在？并通过讨论公共领域国有化的实践以及波兰最近兴起的民族主义来回答——将探讨教育、空间视角如何在勾勒新的思维形式和实行民主时卓有成效。
