The American style of individualism in its traditional form is hardly anti-family/village/church. In fact, one of its notable characteristics for early observers used to European values was that Americans were prolific joiners. Want to do something? Start a club for it! That has broken down over the last decades, but blaming it on individualism seems questionable at best.
- keiferski 6y agoNowhere in my comment did I say American. The point is that urbanization and industrialization encouraged individualism. Today, the market itself does so.
- Matticus_Rex 6y agoRight, and individualism isn't necessarily what you describe it as.
