In this seminal work, Malik Bennabi investigates the essentials of human society by exploring what makes the human group an ethico-social order and historical community and not a mere agglomerate of individuals living according to the mere laws of nature. Following a multi-disciplinary approach informed by a clear philosophical bent mind and a unity of intellectual vision, On The Origins of Human Society provides an adequate theoretical framework for a paradigmatic shift in the study and understanding of human social existence.
