'Public' is about the what of belonging to the people; relating to, or affecting, a nation, state, or community; opposed to private; as, the public treasury, a road or lake. Public is also defined as the people of a nation not affiliated with the government of that nation.
Public also refers to the general body of mankind, or of a nation, state, or community; ''the people'', indefinitely; as, ''the public''; also, a particular body or aggregation of people; as, ''an author's public''. "public Network" means a network that is regulated as a common carrier.
Aggens (1983), in the paper titled "Identifying different levels of public interest in participation" states: "''There is no single public, but different levels of public based on differing levels of interest and ability''".
