HOW CORRECT ARE THE CLAIMS OF GOODNESS OF ASSOCIATIONALISM?

Discussions about how associational life is understood in western societies typically center on the relationship between its robustness and strong democratic institutions. Associations provide the dispersed persons a sense of rootedness. The backdrop of democratization and the introduction of other concepts and categories to understand the significance of associativeness and its connections to democracy are the problems, though. Furthermore, using associations to achieve ones own or communal interests is more essential than whether a person is a associated self since it shows initiative and leadership on the part of the individual. Overall, the relationship could be viewed as a dynamic process where associational actions are considered as an essential component of the state rather than as something separate from or outside of it
