Produktbeschreibung
In a world which often is labeled a "global village, " who exactly is our neighbor? Who is My Neighbor? explores the emergence of what is called "social affinity, " a concept bridging classical notions of social cohesion with contemporary social psychology. The ideas underlying social affinity focus on the sentiment of moral obligation which holds society together.
