The members of a fragmented society are likely to be very analytic, compulsively taking every unusual object and situation apart in an effort to understand and control it. The tendency to analyze is extended to real people who through their wholeness appear to be unusual. The task is a baffling one, for the methodology of analytic understanding, inherently violates that which is to be understood. How can taking something apart yield an understanding of the essence not-to-have- parts. Analysis presumes that the whole is the result of relationships between parts, rather than that the parts depend upon the unity of the whole. Analysis may yield some insights into what are the factors which tend to undermine integrity. In this instance the methodology is consistent with the task at hand. The violation of integrity is a fragmenting process. Analysis is a fragmenting process. Thus analysis is an appropriate methodology for considering the factors which undermine integrity. To understand integrity requires relating to those who have integrity in ways which respect their integrity. Such understanding is not scientific in its character, and so can transcend the limitations which scientists place upon modes of understanding. Such understanding is not likely to provide means for controlling people who have integrity. It is not likely to have utilitarian value---so to the practical scientist/engineer such understanding is likely to appear to be nonsense, and possibly outright false or evil. For the above reasons relationships between people who have real integrity transcend the comprehension of social scientists who are seeking to analyze human behavior, in the manner of the physical scientists. If they are compulsively concerned about their methodology being objectively correct in the eyes of physical scientists, their methodology will violate people with integrity, and so fail true understanding.
