Abstract

The political office, which defines the political Order, is an instrument of mediation between society and State, in the same way as the Community, which mainly absolves the requisite to satisfy the concrete and intimate needs of the individual: the State, on the other hand, is too distant and ‘does not see the social life of man, which could remove him from isolation and from every form of moral decadence, and make him, definitively, into a new man, conferring new dignity on him’. And, above all, ‘one of the essential aims which are hoped to be fulfilled with the creation of the Community’ is the ‘harmonisation of interests’, since ‘here, due to its limited size, interests can be easily harmonised’.
