Abstract

How can human behaviour be described? Surely only by showing the actions of a variety of humans, as they are all mixed up together. Not what one man is doing now, but the whole hurly burly, is the background against which we can see an action, and it determines our judgement, our concepts, and our reactions. (Ludwig Wittgenstein, 1980, p. 97)
