"The Self-Reflecting State" shows a post-modern concept which treats human interaction in a state-like quality: We choose our friends in certain ways, as we want to be treated well by them and at the same time love them for who they are. But when we go to politics, we forget the community spirit and become the most egoist individualist people not thinking beyond ourselves. Why dont we do politics in the same way than we interact in communication with acquaintances? In this book, Timo Schmitz analyses the society on different levels, such as morality, consciousness and culture, showing that our political views actually reveal a lot about us. Therefore, any change begins in us as individuals at first.
