Abstract

It is on the basis of this doctrine of Parts and Wholes - studied by E. Husserl in the Third Logical Investigation - that reflections on social ontology are being developed. The texts of the 1920s on the eidos of the community are highly topical in the face of the resurgence of liberal individualism on the one hand and exclusivist identitarianism on the other. Is there an alternative way to these two extremes?
