Wilhelm Reich and the Psychology of Fascism
Dr. Wilhelm Reich is identified as a unique figure whose books were ordered burned by the US government in the 1950s. His work, "The Mass Psychology of Fascism," explores the tension between authoritarian and egalitarian thought. Reich argued that authoritarianism is a structure built on fear and sexual oppression, while egalitarianism is characterized by reciprocity, decentralized authority, and psychological freedom.
