Abstract

This essay, of a bibliographical and theoretical nature, develops a brief reflection on personalismin Emmanuel Mounier. The aimis to seek the meaning that people have attributedto the thought of this author, as a being-with-the-other, andthe notion of community as a social structure more adequate for the human being to effecthis/herrelational nature. From personalistic positions, it is concluded that freedom and responsibility are seen as necessary for the subject not to be objectified in his/herreal existence, considering that the person consists of one in the world, and in the relationship with the other, builds his/herhistory. It is from the rupture of this relationship that the contradictions of humanity, the alienation and the material misery of the human being take place. Aspersonalism is not only a theoretical explanation of the existential condition, but also a will over man, there arises the demand of the practical commitment with a view to the disalienation of the human being in Mounier.
