"Saying 'I' and 'we,' they find themselves as members of families, of associations, social units, as living 'together,' exerting an influence on and suffering from their world - the world, which has sense and reality for them, through their intentional life, their experiencing, thinking, valuing. Naturally, we have known for a long time that every human being has a 'world-representation', that every nation, that every supranational cultural grouping lives, so to speak, in a distinct world as its own surrounding world, and so again every historical time in its [world]."
