dc.description.abstractThe self is the centre of the world or the “trade centre” of social relationships. It thus encounters the world outside of itself and, guided by its physical (pleasure or pain) and moral (good or bad) sensibilities, it adopts either centripetal of centrifugal dynamics, thereby keeping to itself or going out to others, respectively. Drawing lessons from Jean-Jacques Rousseau, this paper demonstrates the case of the individual self within the broader society, where it relates to material things, but also to other individual selves or persons. The paper, in line with Rousseau’s thought, concludes that our true self is not always entirely in us.en_US
