Bemerkungen

Gutes Ex.; Einband leicht berieben. - "By the end of the 1950's certain socio-economic factors had engendered a significant change in the structure of West German society. The 'German economic miracle' with its wider, though by no means equal, distribution of wealth had done much to disguise, if not totally dissolve the flagrant disparities of income and power. That is to say, it had created an affluent and pluralistic society. A social order based on deference, now commanding less consent, was replaced by one which ostensibly reflected the belief that different individuals wish to make different decisions about their patterns of behaviour and that provided these do not restrict the freedom of others, they should be allowed to do so within a framework of understanding and tolerance. Nevertheless, this remains an idealistic concept. The term 'pluralistic society' derives solely from the existence of a plurality of views, as represented by various individuals or interest groups, and does not refer to an equality of opportunity for the articulation and realisation of those views. As Böll himself acknowledges, pluralism in its present form does not necessarily further true democratic tendencies, but rather militates against them in that the individual finds it increasingly more difficult, because of his fragmented consciousness, to define his position in society: 'Der Pluralismus ergibt dann die so hübschen wie üblichen Ausreden aesthetischer, politischer und persönlicher Art, und daß man sich nicht 'identifizieren' könne'.
