The cult of the sovereign individual?

Question

someone is looking for some help about this, I will just copy what she says:

´Does anyone know what this is? I really need to know and have not the faintest.

The cult of the sovereign individual. (Mauss.)

It's an anthropological piece of evidence or something and I just can't seem to find anything on it, even though it looks like something relatively easy.´

btw I dont have any idea in which category to post, so sorry if its in a wrong category.

Answer 1

It should be called the 'cult of collectivism'.  Individualism is the only moral code of ethics.  Read the link

Answer 2

My guess is this is just a theory, perhaps regarding atheists.
