Abstract: The close and direct interaction within tribal societies gave rise to a “mechanical” solidarity or, in other words, a solidarity based on similarities (precontractual solidarity). Direct and constant supervision of individuals in the small groups determined the internalization of norms, given that the social changes were very slow. With the increasing number of individuals and of "dynamic density", a new form of solidarity arouse: the organic solidarity or a solidarity based on differentiation. The communities became weaker and weaker and the dynamic of social life has increased so much that people have no longer the necessary time to internalize the changes. Consequently, these changes remain more or less external to our own subjectivity. Under these circumstances, creativity is not only a solution for economic growth but also a reservoir for possible better worlds.
