Rules of the Game in Social Relationships

Viac o knihe

Exploring the nature of social interaction, Josef Pieper defines three distinct types: community, society, and organization. He emphasizes the intimate bonds of community, exemplified by family, and contrasts it with the more formal, protective nature of society and the utilitarian focus of organization. Inspired by Max Frisch's assertion that peace requires societal transformation, Pieper critiques the depersonalization in political regimes. His work reflects a deep engagement with fundamental human experiences and the complexities of political reality.
