Download A Macat Analysis of Eric Hoffer's The True Believer: Thoughts on the Nature of Mass Movements AudioBook Free
A self-educated man, Eric Hoffer was probably created in 1898. He published in his spare time after doing shifts on the SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA docks, where he extended to work, even after learning to be a successful author. Hoffer commenced writing The True Believer in the 1940s, as Nazism and fascism spread across Europe. Most analysts who have been trying to work through how these actions became so powerful focused on their market leaders and the ideas they trumpeted. Hoffer focused on the followers. He saw that individuals joining mass actions all got common traits. Sense worn down, that they had lost their sense of self-worth and saw in the movements ways to restore some interpretation with their lives. A half-century after the book's preliminary publication, the terror episodes on the US of September 11, 2001 helped bring it renewed attention. Why? Because Hoffer created a work that talks about not merely the happenings of his day, however the happenings of ours, too, supplying us ways to realize why people behave in relatively irrational ways.
