Abstract
This chapter discusses man and the community. The community is man's greatest achievement; it is through life within human society that man becomes human. Human social organization is unique. Other highly social animals, such as ants and bees, have the patterns of their behaviour fixed independently of experience, where one of the most important qualities of man compared with other animals is his capacity for learning. When human beings behave socially, it means that they have been socialized within a human group—if they have not been socialized within a human group, then they do not behave like human beings. For man, the community is an organic symbol of the universe and of life, and it is the community that provides the symbols that confer on man the specific attributes of humanness. Without the community, man fails to achieve his full stature.
