Social Sciences - Philosophy
English term or phrase: comings-together
Hola, aquí les pego el párrafo completo, es sobre un texto de Richard Rorty

The philosophers who seem to me most useful for leftist students are the old standbys - Mill and Dewey. Mill was right to urge that the aim of social institutions should be the encouragement of the greatest possible human diversity. But we should think of this diversity as he did, as a diversity of self-creating individuals, rather than a diversity of cultures. Our Utopian dreams should be of a world in which cultures are seen as transitory comings-together of individuals - expedients for increasing human happiness rather than as the principal source of a person's sense of self-worth.
