Personality in Contemporary Western Political Thought: Jean Lacroix as a Model

Abstract

Personalism emerged in a historical era in which the world, Europe and France were witnessing the end of a civilized era that extended from the end of the Middle Ages until the early twentieth centur , characterized by being a capitalist structure, a liberal approach and a bourgeoisie of values.  Personalism came not only as an attempt to answer a new era and the birth of a new civilization that is still obscure, but also as a response to the Marxist school of materialism and atheistic existentialism, setting its ultimate goal of remaking( the Renaissance).
