Man & beast

  I have heard it on good authority  That the reason wild animals  Are mistrustful of man Is his unpredictability  Perhaps it is his hypocrisy? Published & Copyright Malachi Doyle 2025.

‘Neologism’?

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948): Article 1 All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of siblinghood.* *I wonder why my iPhone siloing device doesn’t like this word?

Anomie

  Anomie is a state of social instability that happens when society’s norms and values break down or become unclear. The term, coined by sociologist Émile Durkheim, describes how people can feel disconnected, purposeless, or uncertain about what’s right or expected. It often emerges during times of rapid change or inequality, when the usual moral guidelines no longer hold society together. Durkheim's most famous works are The Division of Labor in Society (1893), The Rules of Sociological Method (1895), Suicide (1897) and The Elementary Forms of Religious Life (1912).
