INDIVIDUO E PERSONA NEL COMUNITARISMO DEL NOVECENTO ITALIANO

Abstract

This contribution is dedicated to the community season that spreads in Italy after World War II to build a new democratic society. The protagonists of this spontaneous movement are some masters who, like Capitini, Olivetti, Zucconi, Don Milani and Dolci, carry out educational practices that transform the community into a privileged place for the flowering of the person. The community is the only horizon where the difficult passage from being an individual, I and an isolated atom, to being a person, a relational subject open to other human beings, takes place.
