Answer 1

Eugene says himself that he "opposes to a social order". So he has clearly something against the way that society is organized. That is of someone being rich without granting society anything useful. He keeps going: "we must reorganize society upon a mutual and cooperative basis".

A. We must restructure society collectively.
