Abstract
Landscape 1 has an indicator significance for landscapes 2 and 3 in particular, for social and individual relations in general. Currid-Halkett thus formulated in reference to Thorstein Veblen : “Material goods determine who we are and what place we occupy in the social order”. This also implies the non-disposition of goods, whether involuntary or voluntary (then again as a distinctive feature), but this also implies the material, but also the social consequences and side effects of the production, distribution and, last but not least, disposal of goods. Here the ‘receptors’ for moral ligatures become clear, which ultimately leads to the fact that morality not only permeates social life, but also material life.
