The growing re-integration of these three different spheres of social life—the civic (politics, democracy, bureaucracy, public), the professional (market exchange) and the personal (the civil sphere, family life, communities)—requires of us a kind of political thought that does not take one of the dimensions as fundamental or inherently superior to the other two. We must see the totality of social and political life. This is what it means to go beyond Left and Right, and this is the philosophy which allows us to update the Nordic ideology into effective metamodern politics.
