Sociology and the modern obsession with the "individual"

in sociology •  7 years ago 

P.S. It seems bigoted to me that the West imposes its version of human nature ( individual first) on the rest of the world. We are better off seeking collective freedom from the modern state and capitalism --- The State and Capital love the concept of the individual. It undergirds the notion of "private property" and instills a driving force of competition among the masses. It was a notion, along with brute force, that allowed Western imperialism to spread around the world.
