    Like most things, there isn’t an a/b divide but a spectrum between the two, and in this case it’s even more complicated because a society could take a collectivist view about one thing and an individualist view about others.

      Definitely. Even some abstract ideologies do.

      Say, in ancap finite resources not created by humans (territory, numbers, technologies) are treated as collective property ideally, but since it’s impossible to create anything without them, as private property when mixed with labor. Which means that unused territory belongs to a person who claims it and uses it for something.
