| Summary: | Manipulation. A word with such a special echo that exceeds the boundaries of semantics, creating
rumor and scenarios which are more or less whimsical, with a pregnant whiff of conspiration. Passing
through the scientific-psychological essential aspects, we reach the coup de grace: from the manipulation of
the masses, through the culture of mediocrity, to the much debated manipulation through the use of mass
media. We do not strictly treat the psychology of large groups, neglecting the individual. Thus, we will
tangentially walk the path of Intelligence. How are these strings pulled? Who are the puppeteers and how can
we become them? |
