Description

If there is anything that we can call "Western culture," especially as it is manifest in the US, it would include a tremendous emphasis on the importance of the individual. Here are some common slogans that turn up in the discourse that expresses this individualism: "think different," "don't blend in," "do your own thing." This emphasis on the individual sometimes clashes with corporate, or communal responsibility. And when I say corporate responsibility I am not referring to the responsibility of corporate business or companies to the environment or to ethical concerns, but rather, the responsibility of individuals to the larger corporate group, the community. The question underlying this issue is the extent to which we feel responsible to the larger collective, the degree to which the individual feels responsibility to protect or provide for the larger group.
