tribal
gatherings
a crucial factor in
any form of inclusive
community would be
social pluralism.
in effect a community
of communities.
no monolithic community
(or society, the terms in this sense or exchangeable), can include every
one. we are all unique individuals with different needs, on the other
hand we are also differentiated by psychological and cultural similarities,
we will thus fit best into varied social sets. Indeed our complex
multi-
faceted natures will
lead us to belong to several different sets. and as we develop we may travel
from one such set to another.
thus a free communal
society would be composed of many communities, 'tribes' or affinity groups.
with people travelling freely between them.
it is in the nomadic
flow between these communities and the exchanges and overlaps between them
that the inclusive community will manifest itself. |
