Some Similarities between Social Dynamic: Primitive Horde and Bullying
Main Article Content
Abstract
In the primitive human horde described by Freud, the simplest form of social formation, the father and chief; strong; despot, tyrant and absolute owner of power. As an act of rebelliousness his descendants murder him, felt guilt and through guilt, the father earns control over them. Wor- shiped and secretly hated, through the figure of Totem: a paternal substitute. Despite of human development since then, it is mean to portray that some features of the primitive horde, conti- nue to exist in present day society, specially through the rising phenomenon of bullying. These features include: 1) Disappearance of the individual will; 2) the idea of a violent, powerful and idealized leader; 3) A homogeneous, obedient and submissive group and 4) the illusion of “equa- lity”; 5) predominance of fear over reason.
