This has to be interpreted within the framework of ontological and anthropological ideas that constitute full individual development as the end of the process that is human pre-history (where human being is defined as the potential for such development so that, as long as the process is incomplete, human being is not yet fully actual).
^^^^^ CB: Perhaps we should use the terms "human becoming " rather than "human being".
How does the concept of internal relations impinge here ?
