We modern people who are always in the prosperity of the Internet and SNS, who can always be very careful about the trends of others. Endocratic and anonymous groups that lose their independence independently and continue to float like rootless grass are called "popular".. Nearly a century ago, there is a book that draws such a public problem with sharp insights.. "The opposite of the masses". It is a masterpiece that is the beginning of the popular society, written by Spanish philosopher Ortega Lee Gaset (1883-1955)..
The masses that are full of society. They were people who felt pleasure, not just painful as others.. Washed by rapid industrialization and mass -consuming society, people lose their own community and scaffolding.. As a result, we start to think and act over our own interests, preferences, and desires.. The birth of the "mass" is characterized by claiming only your own desires and rights without being responsible for your actions.. Ortega analyzed that in the 20th century, the overwhelming majority of them began to jump into the center of society and have begun to dominate, and in this way, our civilization is inevitable. I will warn.
Ortega will actively recite liberalism, which will actively undertake the restrictions imposed on themselves, and to fully demonstrate their abilities against these popularization.. Then, "tolerance that the majority recognizes a minority and listen carefully to the voice," and "conservative philosophy of being familiar with human beings and conceiving tradition and sensibility beyond personal reason." Presented as a prescription to stop the deterioration of democracy in public society.
