“Since ancient times, the left side has stood for the side of the unconscious or the unknown; the right side, by contrast, has represented the side of consciousness or wakefulness. Through the late twentieth century, the movement of the Left limited themselves to a materialist understanding of reality- exemplified by Marxism- demanding social justice and economic equality but not the restoration of intuition and the recognition of the hidden, qualitative dimensions of being suppressed by the mental-rational consciousness, narrowly focused on the quantifiable.” RealityLeftSocialUnderstandingSidesJusticeConsciousnessEconomicCenturyMovementLateSocial JusticeAncientIntuitionFocusedRationalRecognitionUnconsciousDimensionsContrastRationalityMarxismTwentieth CenturyRestorationAncient TimesQualitativeEconomic Equality Author:Jean Gebser
“The Socratic maxim that the recognition of our ignorance is the beginning of wisdom has profound significance for our understanding of society. Most of the advantages of social life, especially in the more advanced forms that we call "civilization" rest on the fact that the individual benefits from more knowledge than he is aware of. It might be said that civilization begins when the individual in the pursuit of his ends can make use of more knowledge than he has himself acquired and when he can transcend the boundaries of his ignorance by profiting from knowledge he does not himself possess.” DoeSaidEndsFactsUseMightFormIndividualSocialUnderstandingIgnoranceCivilizationBenefitsAdvantageProfoundPursuitBoundariesRecognitionSignificanceMaximsSocial LifeMore KnowledgeSocratic Author:Friedrich August von Hayek

“When needs and means become abstract in quality, abstraction is also a character of the reciprocal relation of individuals to oneanother. This abstract character, universality, is the character of being recognized and is the moment which makes concrete, i.e. social, the isolated and abstract needs and their ways and means of satisfaction.” WayNeedsMeanMomentsCharacterIndividualSocialQualityRelationSatisfactionRecognitionAbstractIsolatedConcreteCommerceAbstractionReciprocalUniversality Book:Hegel's Philosophy of right Source: Hegel's Philosophy of right
