00:42:40 RL asks Prof. Gibson Winter (GW) about the main point of the book. GW answers that we created a high technology culture, people are given the status by belonging to it. To be free is first to belong, to be counted in, to have a guaranteed income, or some kind of assurance to belong to that society. This is a starting point.
00:43:35 RL asks, so there are two different senses of freedom. The old one is lack of freedom.
00:44:54 An unidentified female voice says "I don't see young people today see freedom as a goal. In the process of being free, we should be careful we don't take on another yoke under the name of freedom."
00:45:27 GW says he sees two levels of the problems: organizational level of freedom, and cultural meaning of freedom in the society.
00:46:43 All guest speakers continue to discuss about organizational level of freedom. GW says there are two aspects of what we need to be free. We need to belong, and we need to have a voice.
