Abstract
Whatever their persuasion [communitarian, Marxist, Christian], all Socialists regarded the opposition of self and society as a false one, reflecting the prevailing ethic of greed and domination. All envisioned an end, really a return to the beginning, in the form either of a perfect community, or the Kingdom of Heaven on earth, or the cooperative commonwealth, each the realization of the promise of America (Fried, 1970, p. 3).
