The science of self, society and nation

摘要

A scientific relationship among self, society and nation is still not clearly known in philosophy, sociology and economics because of lack of concrete historical human data that would enable to substantiate it. Humanity experienced many conflicting economic and political systems and countless wars. In addition, there have been major different religions in societies and nations. Consequently, philosophers, sociologists and economists have bee investigating to study the scientific relationship among self, society and nation. The author (Chung, 2009; 2012b) proposed a theory of the science of self, mind and body. Further, he presented a desirable ideology based on the perspective of his theory: the “communal freedom democracy”. In this study, he compared the ideology of the “communal freedom democracy“ and the “surviving capitalism” of Ringmar (2005). A considerable agreement is present between characteristics of the “communal freedom democracy” and the“ surviving capitalism”. The scientific relationship among self, society and nation is presented in this study.
