The Concept of Crisis and the Experience of Community

Summary/Abstract: The present paper tries to present the concept and intensity of the crisis underlying Mirić's analysis of the crisis of the political system and of self-management. The political system is, by definition, a complex whole, consisting of values, norms, the authorities and the conduct of the citizens and the working people. The split between values and norms, and between norms and conduct, the authorities and the citizens is leading the system into a conflict it cannot sustain. The intensity of the split or of the crisis may be called distributive or the zero sum game type. While in stagnation, the political system does not promote the production of values but distributes the existing ones. The political community and the community as the emotional-affective background of the political system is undergoing a crisis. The emotional pattern of the community is explained by: (1) the dependency type of the emotional group; (2) the fight-flight emotional pattern: and (3) the pairing emotional structure (W. Bion). Mirić’s analysis of the community belongs to the emotionality type of the dependency group. This type experiences certain difficulties, which are considered in the present article.
