A persons place in society (Reflection on the movie New in town) Our world has become more complex due to the rise of modernization and globalization. Oftentimes, we may be able to notice that the world has become functional in a sense, that the human person is treated as an actor fulfilling an expected end. Thus, the persons role in society has been merely viewed as functional and pragmatic making him/her lose the sense of belongingness to the society where s/he himself or herself belongs. Therefore, there must be reorganization of views within society. Instead of being merely functional, the treatment of person to a fellow person must be human. If I were to suggest, there must be an eclectic view of the rational and the emotive aspects of the human person when it comes to their relationship with one another. It is rational in a sense that actions are founded on reasoning which is valid. And at the same time, it is emotive in a sense that it does not disregard the importance of looking into a set of values, to the feelings of the person, that there must always be the presence of sympathy and unity. In the movie new in town, the woman by the name of Lucy who works as company supervisor in Miami was set to work in a small town in Minnesota. At first, she found it hard to adapt to the different orientation and practices that are present in the lives of the people living there. She tends to impose values upon others even if she is only one person and she is against a group of people (workers). That was the case until such time that she fell in love with a guy who lives in that place. This guy, with the help of Lucys assistant named Flo made her realize that there is much more to know about their place and about the relationship of the people living there as a community. The movie somehow depicted a kind of communicative action, a Habemasian concept. This means that in times of misunderstandings, of conflict, there is a sincere intention to be able to settle what wrong and proceed to an action which is directed towards the common good. The people in the place did not succumb to the idea of giving up their livelihood because it is the intention of the capitalist to sell the factory. Instead, they worked as a unified whole in order to meet a certain goal which later benefited everyone who participated. Highlighted in the movie is the principle of solidarity a concept which is similar to that of pamathalaan. It is a kind of system within a community of people wherein there is emphasis on the diwa of the people. Moreover, each individual is viewed as a person with a certain role and a certain place which makes him/her an important member of society.
