The proposal about human being's supreme objective offered by Avempace -philosopher and Aristotelian commentator-, consists on the absolute union of both: the subject's intellect-soul and the agent intellect, the latter characterized by being one, separated, eternal, in addition that in itself contains the universal spiritual forms of all things. For this reason the soul's immateriality as well as its immortality are guaranteed, due to the intellect's absolute spirituality. Because of the corruption given in societies and political practices, this final objective is reached through the best way of life, which consists on solitude and reflection; only this way the highest perfection is acquired. After understanding the relevance Avempace granted to the agent intellect, Albert the Great denied the possibility of union with the mentioned intellect, due to the abolition of all plurality as well as the dissolution of all individuality.

El artículo habla de la esfera política y como intenta de fusionar lo político y lo social a través de la filosofía de Xavier Zubiri. Según el filósofo español, la realidad es parte del proceso de sentir, que tiene un lugar determinado. El campo social se consiste de tres partes: la acción social, la socialidad de las acciones, y la socialidad de la persona. Zubiri interpreta la filosofía entre la logificación de la inteligencia y de la realidad.
