Summary/Abstract: When one "I" claims the entire "we" for itself, is there room left for other "I's"? How much "I" can a society endure? The author addresses these questions in three steps. First, she discusses the historical mediation of ideas between the "I" and the "we." Next, she addresses the process of liberating the individual from contexts of domination and provision. Finally, she explores the path from external responsibility to self-responsibility.
