Autorenporträt
Gustave Le Bon was a seminal French social psychologist, sociologist, and anthropologist, often considered as one of the pioneers in the field of crowd psychology. Born on May 7, 1841, in Nogent-le-Rotrou, France, he embarked on a diverse educational journey which provided a robust foundation for his later works. His exploration of social phenomena culminated in his most famous work, 'The Crowd: A Study of the Popular Mind' (1895), wherein he analyzed the characteristics of human behavior when people come together in groups. His dissection of the 'crowd mind' delved into the realms of irrationality and suggestibility, positing that the individual in a crowd behaves quite differently than they would independently. Le Bon's conjectures established significant groundwork that would influence both contemporaries and later theorists, contributing to the development of various disciplines including crowd psychology, sociology, and political science. Another notable work, 'The Psychology of Revolution' (1913), further displays Le Bon's interest in mass movements and their psychological underpinnings, particularly focusing on the dynamics of revolution and its impact on society. The book examines the emotional and instinctual aspects of revolutionary movements, linking them to the psychological state of the crowds involved. Gustave Le Bon's literary style melds empirical observations with theoretical musings, marked by clear prose and a tendency to synthesize complex social behaviors into coherent systems of thought. His insights remain influential, referenced by scholars and students interested in understanding the psychological aspects of crowd behavior and its implications for broader social dynamics. Le Bon passed away on December 13, 1931, in Marnes-la-Coquette, leaving behind a legacy that continues to provoke thought and discussion in social science and humanities circles.
