The aim of this paper is to trace the widespread conceptualisation of democracy and civil society through the works of Jürgen Habermas. In the vocabulary of contemporary social theory absolute correspondence and perfect harmony between civil society and democracy is taken for granted. In this conceptualisation, civil society is considered as a sphere and/ or a relational process in which democracy will be burgeoned. Diametrically opposite to the Habermasian understanding of democracy, Michel Foucault argues that civil society is not a terrain that is exempt from power relations. Instead civil society is at the core of various power struggles and as such it is a dynamic and internally contradictory space. In other words, Foucault problematizes the ground (democracy and civil society) which Habermas idealizes.
