[…] This somewhat polemic study in applied socio-economics, psychology, and ideology concentrates on one aspect of a larger work the author is preparing and >interrupted< because of >Present political developments< and >dangers<: he therefore was unable to 1941.

In his relative deposition of the man of special talent and thinking who has the >answers,< and would therefore be most unique and individual, the author creates a paradox in his quest for further development of the individual. His >Social Character< is more totalitarian than he imagines. Ironically, the author’s quotations from >Mein Kampf< read very much like Old Testament.
