«Together: The Rituals, Pleasures and Politics of Cooperation» is the sociological essay by Richard Sennett, published by Yale University Press in paperback.
Sennett analyses why we tend to avoid contact with those unlike ourselves and proposes recovering cooperation as a craft that can be learned: listening and discussing, not debating. He examines how to practise it at work, in local politics or daily life, reviews cooperative rituals since medieval times and argues that cooperating is innate.
Work originally published on 26 March 2013. Richard Sennett is also the author of The Craftsman and The Fall of Public Man.
A read for those interested in sociology, political philosophy and the challenges of coexistence in diverse societies.
