Die Psychologie Des Totalitarismus by Mattias Desmet
The book argues that modern totalitarian movements grow when widespread loneliness, anxiety, and meaninglessness produce a “mass formation” in which people surrender individual critical thought to a unifying ideological narrative; that process enables leaders and institutions to mobilize and manipulate populations through simplified stories, scapegoating, fear, and information control; it analyzes psychological mechanisms of conformity and radicalization in historical and contemporary cases and urges rebuilding social bonds, critical reflection, and ethical responsibility to resist totalizing dynamics.
