Abstract
So far, entire theories have stood in the foreground while their components remained in the background. Now, as a summary, the order is reversed — the components are moved up front while the theories themselves remain in the back. The focus is on conceptions (or images) of man, of society, of government, of technology and science, of economics, of law, etc. In one combination or another, these are contained in all theories.
