Sigmund Freud
Group Psychology and the Analysis of the Ego
To Freud, individual and social psychology were virtually identical. The question
he addresses here is, What are the emotional bonds that hold collective entities, such
as an army and a church, together? It is a fruitful question, and Freud offers some
interesting answers. But Group Psychology and the Analysis of the Ego stands
chiefly as an invitation to further psychoanalytic exploration.
