Who could close their mind to the powerful impulsiveness of these three ideals? Nevertheless, very clever people of the nineteenth century, they have rightly, I say expressly rightly, pointed out the contradictions between these three great human ideals and said: If one is to develop the freedom of individuality, if the individualities are really to come into their own alongside each other, how is equality to prevail? Or again: How is fraternity to come into its own alongside equality, alongside the expansion of pure right? Well, you see, there is a capital, fundamental contradiction here. Why? Because these three great ideals of humanity, liberty, equality and fraternity, were still being formulated at a time when people were hypnotized by the idea of the unitary state, that unitary state which has actually led us into today's catastrophe. But something right, something lofty, something powerful was felt in these three impulses, and this can only be realized when it is known that each of these three ideals is suitable for the member of the three-part social organism placed on its own ground. In the future, the free spiritual organism must develop out of the impulses of freedom, the state and political organism out of the impulses of equality, and the economic organism out of the principle of fraternity on a large scale, from experience gained from person to person, from organizations, associations, cooperatives, and so on.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"IV.

Wer könnte sich verschließen der kräftigen Impulsivität dieser drei Ideale. Dennoch, sehr gescheite Menschen des neunzehnten Jahrhunderts, sie haben mit Recht, ich sage ausdrücklich mit Recht, die Widersprüche nachgewiesen zwischen diesen drei großen menschlichen Idealen und haben gesagt: Wenn man die Freiheit der Individualität entwickeln soll, wenn die Individualitäten wirklich nebeneinander zu ihrem Recht kommen sollen, wie soll da Gleichheit herrschen? Oder wiederum: Wie soll neben der Gleichheit, neben dem Ausbreiten des reinen Rechtes noch die Brüderlichkeit zu ihrer Geltung kommen? Nun, sehen Sie, es liegt hier ein kapitaler, fundamentaler Widerspruch vor. Warum? Weil diese drei großen Ideale der Menschheit, Freiheit, Gleichheit und Brüderlichkeit noch gefaßt worden sind in einer Zeit, wo die Menschen hypnotisiert von der Idee des Einheitsstaates lebten, jenes Einheitsstaates, der uns eigentlich in die heutige Katastrophe hineingeführt hat. Aber etwas Richtiges, etwas Hohes, etwas Gewaltiges war doch mit diesen drei Impulsen gefühlt, und dies kann erst realisiert werden, wenn man wissen wird, daß ein jedes dieser drei Ideale für das auf seinen eigenen Boden gestellte Glied des dreigliedrigen sozialen Organismus taugt. Es muß sich in der Zukunft entwickeln der freie geistige Organismus aus den Impulsen der Freiheit heraus, der staatliche, politische Organismus aus den Impulsen der Gleichheit heraus, der wirtschaftliche Organismus aus dem Prinzip der Brüderlichkeit großen Stiles über die Erfahrungen von Mensch zu Mensch, der Organisationen, der Assoziationen, der Genossenschaften und so weiter.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":244,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/330/1919-04-28/p024"}],"english":["GA 330/1919-04-28/p024"],"method":"identity","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":244,"en_words":250,"ratio":1.02,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.04,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":9703,"original_word_count":9371,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"The Reorganization of the Social Organism","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA330/English/SOL2024/19190428p02.html","evidence":"lecture_page_line","publisher_note":"The publisher is inferred from the edition code in this lecture's source URL, not stated by the source page.
