The Psychology of Frontiers & Symptoms of Societal Decline
Published 1 year, 2 months ago
Description
"Adjustment is, rather, an insiduous force that has played, and plays now, a significant role in the affairs of men and their civilizations. Careless allegiance to it has had drastic consequences." -Robert Linder (1952)
Another fascinating share from psychoanalyst Robert M. Linder as he explains the human psychology of expanding out towards the frontiers and edges and how the reverse patterns decay and destroy through societal decline. This is a different way to explain the "Cycles of Civilization" that are so well documented throughout time...all societies follow these predictable patterns, so if you want to know where America is going--here you go. If you don't like it, change course.
