SOCIOMETRYAbstract
Since the beginning of mankind men have fought to maintain existence, on the one side against beasts, storms, floods, and flails of nature and on the other side against each other as individuals, groups, and societies. As if these two types of enemies were not enough for mankind, for the past one hundred and fifty years there has been added a third order which has surrounded humanity with increasing speed. And it is surprising that human beings have created this enemy with their own hands. I refer to many
kinds of tools, machines, and cultural conserves which have appeared after the invention of the machine, in the second half of the eighteenth century. In fact, before the invention of the machine man had made many tools; but all these mean little when compared with the new inventions of the last one and a half century.
