Internal Polity
提出“内部政体”概念，将政治语言应用于个体内心，探讨在多元民主和消费主义背景下，如何通过内部治理增强自我意识和能动性。
Innovation in the governance of external polities prompts a resonant internal rhetoric. This paper attempts to expand the concepts of citizenship and individuality by applying political language to the internal life of individuals. Repression has been a conditional means of civilizing the psyche, but in pluralistic democracies where diversity is valued, where assimilation is not a condition of citizenship and where aspirations are formed within consumerism, this tradition of self-definition may be insufficient. At a time when neither individualism nor collectivism seem able to nurture individuality, the idea of an internal polity can enrich self-awareness and strengthen a sense of agency in the world.
