{"product_id":"9781912992553","title":"The Social Archetype","description":"\u003cp\u003eWe live in a time of multiple challenges to our rights and freedoms - not only in authoritarian regimes but also in liberal democracies around the globe. As the storm clouds of crisis gather, Rudolf Steiners social vision - now a century old - offers a clear way forward. Radical in his time and still so today, Steiners social threefolding is not conceived as a logical system. Rather, his picture of society as a living threefold unity, as a social organism, is an artistic insight that needs to be grasped imaginatively. To understand its three dimensions - the economic, the political-legal and cultural-spiritual spheres - and how they relate to each other, is to experience them inwardly. This requires a living, creative thinking that is able to enter the archetypal forces behind the concepts: a modern-day, truly Goethean approach to the social sciences. In an illuminating study, Hoffmanns dynamic presentation enables us to develop precisely such an artistic-imaginative understanding of the threefold social organism. He achieves this through clear descriptions of its principles and practical governance, whilst offering wise advice regarding the adaptation of education - at school and tertiary levels - for a threefold society.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"CLAIRVIEW BOOKS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51185593745682,"sku":"9781912992553","price":39.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0508\/3093\/4173\/files\/9781912992553.jpg?v=1774737222","url":"https:\/\/bargainbooks.com.au\/products\/9781912992553","provider":"Bargain Books Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
