"The oppressed/oppressor, the marginalised/dominant template provides the moralising structure for such cruelty."

I'm just wrapping up Robert Nisbet's The Quest for Community which is absolutely fascinating and introduced me to some nuances of Rousseau that had I not seen before. What is relevant from that is how all of this is built off the consolidation of authority in the nation-state (and the concurrent diminishment of non-state authorities within a society), and of the interplay between individualism and equality that are the key inheritances from the Renaissance, Reformation and Enlightenment.
