Abstract
Our political malaise is due to the same cause as our social malaise: that is, to the lack of secondary cadres to interpose between the individual and the State. We have seen that these secondary groups are essential if the State is not to oppress the individual: they are also necessary if the State is to be sufficiently free of the individual.–Émile Durkheim, Professional Ethics and Civic Morals Human progress never rolls in on the wheels of inevitability–Martin Luther King, Jr., A Knock at MidnightKeywords
