Summary:Why should we wonder about man and the human sense? What are the questions and answers we are seeking? Why should we read the work of Werner Sombart? Or rather, why should we re-read "this" Sombart? This book tracks the human sense in order to rediscover this compass against the current crisis of the humanistic conception of society. This crisis is manifest in a repositioning of society, which is no longer human by definition, in contrast to the past, when the term "human society" was a tautology and redundant. As such, the human element of society must be rediscovered. This book revitalizes the scientific sense of the human, which is almost anesthetized, often frustrated and belittled, sometimes confused and mistaken with something else, frequently misunderstood and made unrecognizable, but, precisely for this reason, which is increasingly essential today
