The Future of Intimacy
Amos Oz: It's not rules that we need. It's a revived kind of intimacy. I have read on a kibbutz community for 30 years of my life. The fact that people had to exist all the time within the circle of shame and pride where other people knew immediately everybody knew when you did something shameful, was an essential blessing. So I am fantasizing about society where more and more people will work from home so they can revive neighborhood atmosphere. Go out and have coffee at the corner of the street with people who are of totally different disciplines.
