Please read the following text and answer the questions at the end of it

Morín, E. (2006). El método 6. Ética. Madrid, España: Editorial Cátedra

The philosopher –anthropologist Edgar Morin, author of the book “El Método” explain through six volumes the great difficulty of thinking the complexity of the reality.  In the Sixth volume entitled Ethics, proposes a particular situation of ethics as a relinking act.

The following excerpt explains how complexity must be faced in the social level:

“Every glance about ethics must perceive moral act as an individual act of relinking: a relinking act to the fellow human being, a relinking act to the community, a relinking act to the society, but at the end, also a relinking act to the Humankind. There is an individual source of ethics placed in the inclusiveness principle, this how the individual is included into a community (us), the inclusiveness principle also  takes us to the love, friendship and altruism. Inclusiveness is as worthy as relinking (Anschluss wert). At the same time, there is a social source that lays inside the rules and norms themselves. This source make the individuals to have a sympathetic behavior. There is, then a kind of pre-established harmony that makes individuals to follow sympathetic ethics. In certain point, moral is a “natural” concept in human beings and it deepens on the human being and social nature as well. However this definition needs to be changed, due to the double-faced nature of human beings and society. On one hand, individual is addressed under a strong press ion of egocentricity and selfishness; on the other hand, society is driven to rivalries, struggles of selfish interests. The ethics norms are not imposed completely too all individuals in a society; nevertheless individuals only can have an ethical behavior after they have overcame their own selfish thoughts and desires. This issue gets worse in complex societies, where the individual progress is tied to disintegration of traditional sympathetic concepts” (Morin, 2006, pág. 24)
