A decade has past since the publication of the article by Jensen Sass and John S. Dryzek (already a classic) "Deliberative Cultures". There it was established a new direction and also a methodological challenge to the studies on deliberative democracy from the normative and applied points of view. This panel deals with structural inequalities, such as income, social, age, gender and racial disparities, as they are considered in existing conceptions of deliberative democracy, as well as in participation initiatives of all kinds. We wish to approach the subject assuming the conclusions of Afsoun Afsahi in 2021 regarding the important role played by facilitators, relators and mediators in general in mini-publics, such as they have been defined by Maija Setälä and Graham Smith in 2018. Assuming Robert Brandom’s philosophical perspective and his motto "making it explicit", this panel stresses the intersection of studies on cultural mediation, moral and political philosophy, argumentation theories and critical theory. We intend to analyse deliberative cultures and the complex processes of interpretation, argumentation and cultural translation in which social agents (e.g. members of civil society, activists, social collectives, professionals, organisations, institutions, etc.) are immersed. Our contention is that such an analysis is needed in order to find ways to radically deepen and broaden democracy, promoting effective and transformative participation.
