The sense of a fundamental cultural dichotomy between a unifying force (centralising) and a dispersing energy (decentralising) is an idea which was first raised in 1930's by a Russian Mikhail Bakhtin.

If we assume that we each contain an aspect of both of these forces the challenge is to find a balance which maintains the tension between these opposing forces and avoid veering to either one side or the other.
