Subject: Re: BHA: Literature query RB


Dear Hans,
When dealing with the four-planar social being encompassing the so called
'social cube' (a) plane of material transactions; b) plane of
inter-/intra-subjective [personal] relations; c) plane of social relations;
and d) plane of subjectivity of the agent, RB speaks about the social
process, in the TMSA as involving 1) unintended consequences; 2)
unacknowledged conditions; 3) unconscious motivation; and 4) tacit skills
(in Plato Etc. p 95, developing the scheme provided in Dialectic § 2.9 But
see further on the stratification of action and the stratified model of the
agent/subject, Dialectic 165 ff and Plato Etc 98 f). I think further he
mentions these concepts in SRHE, but they are all enumerated in Plato Etc p
95.
Best regards
Pär Engholm
