Kitle Psikolojisi

Mass psychology surfaces in mass actions; It treats the individual as a member of a tribe, a nation, a caste, a class, an institution, or as part of a mass of people who came together at a certain time and organized for a certain purpose. The conscious personality of the individual who becomes a part of the mass and comes under its domination disappears. The formation of mass psychology leads to the loss of individual psychology and emotions to become collective rather than individual. In this situation, where the importance of mind and intelligence decreases and the individual adapts to mass standards and exhibits these in his behavior, it is seen that social exclusion occurs and violence occurs when socially adopted values and beliefs are opposed at individual and group levels.

Just as the cells in an organism come together to form a single entity, the psychological mass is a temporary entity composed of elements of the same type that are momentarily fused together. In this study, Freud starts from the definition of the mass soul, that is, the collective soul life, and deals with the sticking of the individual to that soul through suggestion, the dominance of two artificial masses such as the church and the army, and the identification of the individual with society.
