The book, Disclosing New Worlds: Entrepreneurship, Democratic Action, and the Cultivation of Solidarity (MIT Press, 1997), identifies three archetypes that are effective history makers: the entrepreneur, the social activist, and the cultural articulator. […] The social activist maximizes engagement with the public sphere. […] The cultural articulator reframes the issues confronting society by talking about virtue in a new way. […]
Each of these archetypes “makes history,” say authors Fernando Flores, Hubert Dreyfus, and Charles Spinosa, by finding a disharmony and persistently exploring its implications, ultimately identifying an accepted way of acting that can help resolve it.
