Elsewhere, I have indicated how this
field - approach to Whiteheadian societies allows
for a trinitarian understanding of God in which the three divine persons of traditional Christian doctrine by their dynamic interrelatedness from moment to moment constitute a structured
field of
activity for the whole of creation.6 Here I would only emphasize that thinking of Whiteheadian societies as aggregates of mini-entities with one entity providing the necessary unity
for the entire group is reductively much more impersonal and materialistic than the approach sketched in these pages.
On the contrary, given the presumption of a collective agency

for dinner all made excuses; the man comfortably in bed with his children who gets up at midnight to help his importunate neighbor only because he despairs of getting rid of him otherwise; the king who is out to capture a city; the man who built his house upon the sand and lost it in the first storm of wind and rain; the queer employer who pays all of his men the same wage whether they have worked the whole day or a single hour; the great lord who going to a distant land entrusts his property to his three servants and judges them by the success of their investments when he returns; the shepherd whose sheep falls into a ditch; the woman with ten pieces of silver who, losing one, lights the candle and sweeps diligently till she finds it, and makes the finding of it the occasion of a celebration in which all of her neighbors are invited to share — and how long such a list might be!

In many books and articles over the years, I have argued that Whiteheadian societies, while not possessing agency in and of themselves, nevertheless possess an objective ontological unity from moment to moment in virtue of the collective agency of their constituent actual occasions2 The unity thus achieved is in my view the unity of an ongoing structured
field of
activity for successive generations of actual occasions undergoing concrescence within the
field.
My own trinitarian conception of the God - world relationship, as expressed in previous publications, lends itself even more dramatically to a
field - oriented understanding of the God - world relationship since it makes clear how the three divine persons of the Christian doctrine of the Trinity can be said to possess a
field proper to their own divine being which likewise serves as the «matrix» or ontological ground
for the
field of
activity proper to creation (see,
for example, The Divine Matrix 52 - 69 and «Panentheism from a Process Perspective»).
For, in line with this proposal one can postulate that the universe or cosmic process is at any given moment an all - encompassing «structured society» or structured field of activity for all the actual entities emergent within it.4 Each actual entity, therefore, is able to derive its defining characteristic or common element of form from the ongoing structure of the society or societies to which it belon

That is, just as the human mind is, in terms of my theory, an enduring intentional

At the same time, by thinking of Whiteheadian societies as ongoing structured
fields of
activity for their constituent actual occasions, I think that I can remedy one of the classical defects of the Hartshornean concept of God vis - á - vis the Whiteheadian.
Much simpler, as I see it, is my own hypothesis that individual actual occasions prehend the ongoing structure of the
field of
activity (society) in which they and themselves and basically conform their own process of self - constitution to it, with due allowance, of course,
for the varying degrees of spontaneity which the individual occasions themselves may possess.3
But, if one focuses on the society as a structured
field of
activity for its constituent actual occasions, then the continuity in the divine being, which is such an important feature of Whitehead's approach to the reality of God as an ever - concrescing actual entity, is likewise present in Hartshorne's scheme.
Yet, given the logical problems connected with the notion of a finite actual entity somehow prehending the objective integration of the primordial and consequent natures within God (as indicated above), it makes sense to think of God's influence on the concrescing actual occasion simply in terms of divine feelings vis - à - vis objective possibilities already present in the world as a common
field of
activity for God and all finite actual occasions.
It seems much simpler to me to say that the structural possibilities
for the self - constitution of currently concrescing actual entities are present in the society or
field of
activity to which the entities belong, but that only God in virtue of the divine primordial nature has an infallible understanding which possibilities will be genuinely fruitful and to what extent they will be fruitful and which possibilities will ultimately be fruitless, at least in terms of the achievement of higher goals and values.
