Does anyone know of any famous philosophers who wrote about human relationships/human interaction?

I'm looking into the field of philosophy for a senior project. I wanted to research what appreciated philosophers wrote about how humans connect with one another. The research would tie into how the world of technology is slowly changing that. Any names or titles would help!

In relationships there is

Ethics http://aynrandlexicon.com/book/conceptua鈥?/a>

Psychology http://aynrandlexicon.com/book/conceptua鈥?/a>

Politics http://aynrandlexicon.com/book/conceptua鈥?/a>

Economics http://aynrandlexicon.com/book/conceptua鈥?/a>

and Other http://aynrandlexicon.com/book/conceptua鈥?/a>



All of it is extremely well-indexed, and by a famous modern philosopher whose work is still being expanded upon by Washington think tanks, TV pundits, talk radio, several famous politicians, and many other philosophers. One of my favorites is Tibor Machan. http://www.hoover.org/bios/machan.html

Alfred Kinsey, you won't be disappointed.
There is a part of %26quot;Beyond Good and Evil%26quot; by Nietzsche that deals with the different ways that people love. It's not hard to find in a well indexed copy.



Karl Marx's understanding of relationships between the capitalist and worker are incredibly insightful and human, and can be found at their best in %26quot;Alienated Labour%26quot; (which is part of the Paris Manuscripts/early works). Marx's idea of what constitutes a natural relationship between people sounds to me like it might be appropriate, especially his view that the separation of capital (which relates to the technological means of production) and labour (which is very human).



You might also want to look at globalization, and how technology is breaking down some communities and creating others. This might help you to explore the foundation of relationships between groups of people.
