The "community personalism" matures in the reflection on work, person, economy and politics between capitalism and collectivism. Even with intuitions, the sense of work fluctuates quite a lot. Exploited and oppressed, it acquires dignity as a "law of the embodied spirit" and a "central value"; but it is not the "essential vocation" and primary of the person. In fact, the spiritual magnet drags him into unsolvable conflicts of more and less, before and after, concessions and reservations (the refrains: not all of life, not just work, etc.). To the point of declaring it even more "unessential" than less "essential" than anything else, looking more towards contemplation and a creative otium. Hence the uncertainties about the free and democratic union, but corporate. Hence reliefs by Maritain and Ricoeur.
