Recenzii
"Ben Roth, a frequent contributor to the group therapy and group dynamics literature, has undertaken to explain how Hitler was able to mobilize a large segment of the German people to the mass delusion that the Jews were dangerous and had to be thoroughly exterminated. In an original and creative way he employs Bion's theory of group hallucinosis to explain how the average German became "willing executioners" in the worst form of genocide in the history of man."-Leonard Horwitz, Training and Supervising Analyst, Greater Kansas City Psychoanalytic Institute; Former Director of Group Psychotherapy, Menninger Clinic, USA
"Drawing on a range of authors with diverse points of view, this singular and passionate contribution to the psychoanalytical study of social groupings and States sponsored mass violence, explores the formation and functions of the neglected problem of false collective belief. Entirely relevant to the understanding of our current experiences of migration, racism and terrorism, the Shoah is located in the context of the Holocaust and other genocides. Undoubtedly a valuable addition to the theory of group dynamics and the social unconscious, psychoanalysts and group analysts will also find this book to be useful in clinical work."-Earl Hopper, Ph.D., former President of the International Association for Group Psychotherapy; Editor of the New International Library of Group Analysis; psychoanalyst, group analyst and organisational consultant, private practice, London, UK

Descriere
A Group Analytic Approach to Understanding Mass Violence makes an analytic examination of the enactment of genocide by Nazi Germany during World War Two to explore how mass and state-sponsored violence can arise within societies and how the false beliefs that are used to justify such actions are propagated within society. Bennett Roth makes use of Bion’s concept of ‘Hallucinosisi’ to describe the formation of false group beliefs that lead to murderous violence.
