Abstract: This article will analyse the alienation that politics has suffered since its creation. The analytical model, based not only on the ideal type of the Greek Polis, but also on the appearance of rhetoric within this public sphere, on the creation of small economic medieval groups (The Gilds in Italy), on the creation of military and political groups (The Gulfs and Ghibellines in France), and later on the creation of political groups (The Whigs and the Tories in England), will reflect the limits of Politics (of the Polis) as a public sphere in which citizens should actively participate in discussing and solving common problems, through the rhetorical participation of public speakers in the Polis and the expansion of the private sphere in creating these small enterprise, political-military, and political groups. It emphasises the necessity to understand and assess the city as a space where all citizens have the chance to participate in decision-making and in solving their problems.
