Gustave Le Bon explores the distinct psychological traits of crowds, highlighting how collective behavior diverges from individual actions. He identifies characteristics such as impulsiveness, emotional exaggeration, and a lack of rationality, suggesting that individuals in a crowd can become entranced by its collective influence. Le Bon's insights into the dynamics of group psychology underscore the potential dangers of mass gatherings and remain pertinent in today's society, reflecting on how modern communication has amplified these phenomena.
