Threefold Social Order & Commonwealth
Author: Rudolf Steiner
Language: English
Social threefolding is a sociological theory suggesting the progressive independence of society's economic, political and cultural institutions.
It aims to foster human rights and equality in political life, freedom in cultural life (art, science, religion, education, the media), and associative cooperation in economic life.
The idea was first proposed by Rudolf Steiner in the great cultural ferment immediately following the end of the First World War.
The process of achieving the cooperative independence of these three societal realms is meant to be achieved through a gradual transformation of existing societal structures.
Steiner believed that the three social spheres had very gradually, over thousands of years, been growing independent of each other, and would naturally tend to continue to do so, and that consciously furthering aspects of this independence thus works in accordance with society's natural evolution.
