A tömegek lélektana by Gustave Le Bon
"A tömegek lélektana" by Gustave Le Bon is a book published in 1895. Le Bon argues that individuals in crowds undergo psychological transformation, losing their capacity for reason and becoming impulsive and suggestible. He examines how crowds develop distinct characteristics including heightened emotion, diminished judgment, and susceptibility to persuasion by leaders. The work explores crowd behavior across various contexts—from criminal mobs to electoral assemblies—and discusses the influence of heredity, national character, and
ideology on collective psychology. This influential study shaped later thinkers including Freud and notoriously influenced political movements. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
