created by Deborah909

In this monograph, Sigmund Freud meditates on the interaction between individual consciousness and group behavior.

In one highly influential chapter, he compares the armed forces with the Roman Catholic Church, and points to the ways that both institutions replicate the dynamics of the parent-child relationship.
