Social Change and Embodiment

Original language description

In this article, I explore the role embodiment plays in social change. My thesis is that there is an inherent opposition in our being. On the one hand, we are, by nature social animals. This is the driving force of our communication, indeed, of the semantic net that we cast over the world. On the other hand, our embodiment imposes a radical individuality upon us. No one can see out of another person&apos;s eyes. Each person, individually, brings the world to appearance. In fact, the language we use is never able to completely overcome the individuality of our perspectives. Newness requires that we move beyond the level that we express through language, the level that forms our semantic context. It requires, I argue, the disruption that the uniqueness of the embodiment-of the flesh that its uniquely our own-brings to our common semantic context.
