Аннотация: There is still an ongoing debate about whether the priority is the personality or the state. Opponents trying to prove the validity of their own opinion in practice at present, point to Western countries and China, respectively. In fact, this dispute is nothing more than scholastic, since it does not affect the deep foundations of either the individual or the state. A misunderstanding of these foundations has led Europe, which has been rapidly developing over the past few centuries, to stagnation and decline, and China, which for thousands of years has been "cooked in its own juice," has led to colonization by the West, and its current rise has been achieved, again, at the expense of technology and scientific achievements of the West.
