Abstract
Inspired by Milan Kangrga’s definition of ‘home’ as the place where we feel at ease (particularly elaborated in an essay by Hrvoje Jurić), I will study other, potential connotations of the term ‘home’ - as a place of care, hope, utopia and myth. I will also consider ‘home’ as a potential place for democracy subjects (abused women, displaced people, refugees, and others) for whom Kangrga’s view of ‘home’ is questionable. The study of ‘home’ from the standpoint of particularity (starting from one’s own home, region, people, nation, country, to the universe) versus democracy (studied from the same standpoint since it is a phenomenon subject to historical changes) shows that the mentioned phenomena manifest as privileges of only a few socially determined subjects. Therefore, some consider ‘home’ as a privilege, while the others see it as an empty or fictional place. The status of democracy subjects is treated in a similar way. Among other things the study points out that the relationship between the general and the particular is questionable, especially when it comes to issues dealt with in political philosophy. For example, what happens when the particular becomes dominant, or when it is denied by what is general, i.e. historically or politically dominant (for example, male or European by nature).
