Synopsis "the crowd"

. Under certain given circumstances, and only under those circumstances, an agglomeration of men presents new characteristics very different from those of the individuals composing it. The sentiments and ideas of all the persons in the gathering take one and the same direction, and their conscious personality vanishes. A collective mind is formed, doubtless transitory, but presenting very clearly defined characteristics.

Gustave Le Bon (1841-1931) was an influential French sociologist, psychologist, and philosopher, known for his studies on crowd psychology. His most famous work, The Crowd: A Study of the Popular Mind (1895), explores how emotions and ideas can influence collective behavior, a topic of great relevance in the development of sociology and politics. His focus on the power of emotions and their impact on collective decision-making earned him recognition as a precursor in the study of social psychology.
