The Threefold Commonwealth (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781169726772)

The Threefold Commonwealth is a book written by Rudolf Steiner that explores his vision for a new social order. Steiner argues that society should be divided into three distinct spheres: the cultural, the political, and the economic. Each sphere should be autonomous and self-governing, with its own set of laws and principles. In the cultural sphere, education, art, and science should be free from political and economic influence. In the political sphere, decisions should be made democratically, with the focus on protecting individual rights and freedoms. In the economic sphere, businesses should be owned and operated by workers, with the goal of meeting the needs of society rather than maximizing profits. Steiner believes that this threefold system will create a more just and harmonious society, where each individual has the opportunity to develop their full potential. The Threefold Commonwealth is a thought-provoking read for anyone interested in alternative social and economic systems.1923. Steiner's desire in presenting this exposition is to give the first impetus along a path that shall lead to social ends in keeping with the actual realities and exigencies of life at the present time. He believes that it is only through effort thus directed that our social will and purpose can get beyond mere Utopianism and wordy sentiment.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
