Viac o knihe

Exploring the intersection of psychology and politics, this work delves into how human impulses shape political behavior beyond mere intellectual reasoning. Wallas emphasizes that emotions such as affection, fear, and desire significantly influence political actions, often in ways that are primal and instinctual. He critiques the impact of media on political emotions, noting that while they can be immediate, they often lack depth and permanence. This analysis challenges traditional political science, urging a deeper understanding of human nature in political contexts.
