Beschreibungen

The book "A man of conviction. Personality, power and mass movements "(The True Believer. Thoughts on The Nature of Mass Movements) brought Eric Hoffer worldwide fame: written in 1951, the study of the recognized classic of social thought is devoted to the nature and content of the mass movements of mankind - whether they be parties, religious currents, national or social revolutions. How can one explain the attraction for the masses of such ambiguous figures in world history and spiritual culture as Christ, Buddha, Mohammed, Hitler, Stalin? Revealing patterns, the author gives original, sometimes paradoxical answers. Hoffer earned a reputation as a modern Machiavelli, but he himself considered himself a successor to the traditions of Montaigne, Pascal and Dostoyevsky. Like Nietzsche, he is a thinker of unexpected (and not always pleasant) truths. The book will be of interest to anyone who is interested in problems associated with mass social movements and power.
