Rudolf Steiner e.Lib Document
Lectures Section
In the social ferment of postwar Europe in 1919, Steiner presented
his ideas about reforming the basis of society in three fundamental,
autonomous spheres: economic, political/rights, and cultural. For a
short time he worked to bring his ideas into practical application but
it soon became impossible to bring about a 'threefold social order' and
he withdrew from the outer work in this area. His ideas have been worked
with over the decades since that time and have proved to be just as
valid today as they were then.
