Finnish Sosialismi ja individualismi Produced by Juha Kiuru "Sosialismi ja individualismi" by Oscar Wilde is a philosophical treatise written in the early 20th century. This work delves into the concepts of socialism and individualism, grappling with their implications on society and the individual. Wilde’s exploration is likely centered around the tension between communal responsibility and personal freedom, as he reflects on the societal constraints imposed by economic structures. At the start of the work, Wilde introduces the advantages of socialism, particularly the idea of liberating individuals from the obligation of laboring for others’ benefit. He criticizes the tendency of individuals to focus on alleviating the symptoms of societal problems, such as poverty, rather than addressing the root causes. Wilde posits that true progress requires a restructuring of society where poverty becomes impossible, allowing individuals to achieve their true selves free from external compulsion. He articulates a vision where socialism leads to individualism rather than its suppression, emphasizing the need for personal identity and the dangers inherent in a system that simply substitutes one form of tyranny for another.
