Contemporary Man's Crisis 
 
This crisis is present mainly on the Western and Christian man, this is to say, from the European and his descendants, the American and the Australian.

 
The many crises that move the world of today-of the State, of the family, of the economy, of the culture, etc.-do not constitute but several aspects of a single fundamental crisis, which has a field of action man himself. In other terms, these crises have their roots in the deepest problems of the soul, from which they extend to all aspects of the personality of the contemporary man and all his activities. 
 
This crisis is present mainly on the Western and Christian man, this is to say, from the European and his descendants, the American and the Australian. This is the reason why we will study it more particularly. It also affects other societies, as far as they are extended and the Western world has taken roots in them. In these societies, such a crisis is complicated by the inherent problems of each culture and civilization and with the clash between them and the positive or negative elements of Western culture and civilization. 
 
As deep as the factors of diversification of this crisis are in the different countries of today, it retains, always, five capital characters: it is universal, one, total, dominant and procedural.
