My manuscript, The Discovery of Freedom, needs significant re-work to incorporate the social psychology of dystopias.
This is placeholder post but there’s a lot of info out there that I’ve come across which will inform the update. Basically group psychology needs to be studied at great length if we are to create a genuinely free society.
Things that will inform this study include:
Milgrom experiment
Christopher Browning’s Ordinary Men
Asch conformity experiments
Mackay’s Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds
Many wonderful videos at: The Academy of Ideas
But there’s of course a lot more. Either way, without understanding human nature we will always fail to build a genuinely free society.
