reproduce it, by emphasizing face-to-face contact with peer groups
replace it with a superior form of communication
revive it, by reaffirming a commitment to freedom of speech
The commercialization of the mass media and the dominance of transnational corporations arguably threatened the public sphere, but the rise of the Internet can be seen as a challenge to this.
