| Summary | "The Psychology of Revolution" by Gustave Le Bon is a scientific publication written during the late 19th century. The book analyzes the psychological underpinnings of revolutions, particularly focusing on the French Revolution, and explores how beliefs, emotions, and collective behavior influence the actions and outcomes of such events. At the start of the book, Le Bon sets the stage for a deep examination of the historical and psychological elements involved in revolutionary movements. He reflects on the notion that traditional historical narratives are undergoing significant reevaluation, prompted by contemporary understandings of psychology. He theorizes that revolutions are not merely socio-political upheavals but rather phenomena driven by underlying psychological laws, often operating within collective and individual consciousness. Through this lens, he raises questions about the nature of belief, the role of the masses, and the violence that typically accompanies revolutionary movements, thus preparing the reader for a complex exploration of how revolutions fundamentally reshape societies.
