Eugene Csocsan de Váralja: The Just Income Distribution
THE JUST INCOME DISTRIBUTION 125 On the main central joining point of culture and civilisation is located the legal order, without which no civilisation is possible, and which is based on moral standards. It is the system of laws, which joins the material civilisation with the spiritual culture, reflecting the fact, that in the root of the legal system, in the human person these two worlds meet, when the soul occupies the body. The subjects of law are always persons, and if there is no natural person given, artificial legal persons will be projected there by the system of law.47 demptoris, AAS 1937 (a. XXIX), page 93. 47 As far as social psychology is concerned it is an interesting phenomenon, that the legal systems’ projections multiply the persons of the society by the creation of legal persons. According to the experience of Leopold Szondi’s deep psychology the legal orientation of someone is connected with “diastole and systole of the ego” in Szondi’s terminology. The just mentioned psychological processes are connected with the multiplication of the ego in the cases of split personalities. Only human persons seem to have the processes termed by Szondi “ego diastole and systole”, and therefore it is natural, that only in human societies can we find such multiplications of the members of the society. In the same mental processes in question can we find the psychological roots of the legal persons.
