"DEVELOPING A COLLABORATIVE AND COMMUNICATIVE LEARNING COMMUNITY FROM JURGEN HABERMAS' NOTION OF "EMANCIPATORY SOCIETY" BY MANTOVANNY TAPUNG"

            Jürgen Habermas (born 1929) is a German philosopher and sociologist notable for his contributions to critical theory and communication. His key works include "The Theory of Communicative Action" (1981 & 1987), which discusses how human actions are shaped by communication, leading to shared understanding and consensus in society. In "The Philosophical Discourse of Modernity: Twelve Lectures" (1985), Habermas provides a critical analysis of modernity and the dominant rationality of the modern era. "Moral Consciousness and Communicative Action" (1990) explores how moral actions are influenced by communication and how shared moral understanding is achieved through interaction. "Between Facts and Norms: Contributions to a Discourse Theory of Law and Democracy" (1992) develops a discourse theory integrating law and democracy, highlighting how democratic discourse can form the basis for legitimate laws. Finally, "The Structural Transformation of the Public Sphere" (1962) advocates for a society that promotes justice, equality, freedom, and citizen participation through dialogue and collaboration in public decision-making.

         How does Jürgen Habermas' notion of an "emancipatory society" inform the development of a collaborative and communicative learning community?



         Jürgen Habermas' notion of an "emancipatory society" provides a robust framework for developing a collaborative and communicative learning community. In such a community, open dialogue is highly valued, encouraging students to share ideas, ask questions, and engage in discussions without fear or shame. Active participation is essential, with all members given opportunities to contribute to class discussions and group projects. Emphasizing justice and equality ensures that every student feels valued and treated fairly, without discrimination. The formation of shared understanding through communication is crucial, promoting collaboration in solving problems and achieving common goals. Critical thinking and analysis are integral, fostering an environment where students are encouraged to evaluate information objectively and consider diverse perspectives. By implementing these principles, a learning community can become more collaborative and communicative, supporting the personal and academic development of all its members.
