1 00:00:01,389 --> 00:00:07,710 how do you behave when you are at school and how do you behave when you're alone in your room 2 00:00:08,669 --> 00:00:15,390 you behave the same way of course not there are some things you can do when you're alone in your 3 00:00:15,390 --> 00:00:22,910 room that you would never do at school so that's the difference between public space and private 4 00:00:22,910 --> 00:00:32,070 space. We call public space the sphere that we share with other people, an area where everybody 5 00:00:32,070 --> 00:00:40,390 can interact and that is open to anyone. In order to interact with other people in the public sphere, 6 00:00:40,390 --> 00:00:47,490 we need some rules. It's not possible that we do whatever we want because we need to respect each 7 00:00:47,490 --> 00:00:57,729 other. These rules that organize our interactions in the public space are called laws, legal rules, 8 00:00:58,530 --> 00:01:05,810 and they are set in order to guarantee that everybody is respected, that everybody's freedom 9 00:01:05,810 --> 00:01:13,959 is respected. Private space is quite different. In a private space you can do theoretically 10 00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:22,200 what you want. Imagine you are in your room and you want to listen to music. Nobody can 11 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:32,280 stop you from doing so, unless it's too late and your neighbors want to sleep. So, even though your 12 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:39,560 private space is only yours and it belongs to you, there are some limits to what you can do even in 13 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:40,959 in the private space. 14 00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:46,000 We should say that private space is this sphere 15 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,019 where you can do whatever you want 16 00:01:48,019 --> 00:01:50,980 as long as you respect other people 17 00:01:50,980 --> 00:01:54,200 that might be influenced by your choices.
