Abstract
The problem of political abstention of voters leaves democratic institutions without content. That is why the role of political communication in the context of the essential development of democracy is becoming very relevant today. We are interested in how deliberative communication, as a model of political communication, is connected with the mobilization of voters in political processes, which is how democracy is realized. The meaning of deliberatization is based on the idea of bringing stakeholders closer to a consensus through a free and equal dialogue of political communication in the communication community. In this way, a better legitimacy of political decisions is achieved. It is a process of discursive political communication that "creates and maintains" the actions of the government. The research question of our article was how scientific and professional theory look at the role of deliberative communication, as a model of political communication, in the process of political participation of political stakeholders in the communication community today. We assumed (the hypothesis) that scientific theory looks optimistically at the role of deliberative communication. In the article, we used the descriptive method and the method of analysing scientific and professional texts. We carried out the research with a review of domestic and foreign editions of professional books, monographic publications, original scientific articles, and research results. We obtained data using the Cobiss and Google Scholar databases. The results of the research showed that scientific theory views deliberative communication as a promising experiment and evolution in the realization of deliberative democracy..
