From a Development perspective, the actualization of the potential of Being spreads across different Times and Modes.
The view of this development can be in the sense of “blossoming”, of “unfolding”, or from the external view of the same development, as Carlos Caldeira would say, quoting Sartre, from “IN ITSELF”, or from “FOR ITSELF”…
The Socio-Anthropological System is interested not only in the functioning of the Being in a situation of encounter between his inner world and the outer world that circumscribes and conditions him, but even more particularly in the updating of relational dimensions and the optimization of functioning in the structuring and realization of his personal project that gives meaning to his existence.
