About This Book

The work argues that democratic life must be reorganized around group association rather than party machinery or simple majority rule, presenting a group psychology that yields collective ideas, feelings, and wills while enabling individual creativity. It critiques representative and ballot-box models as forms of herd rule and advocates neighborhood and occupational groups as practical units for political participation and service-based pluralism. It outlines institutional designs for integrating these groups within federal and functional arrangements, emphasizes civic training and moral responsibility for effective citizenship, and extends the group principle to proposals for international cooperation and a cooperative form of governance.
