Essay from the year 2011 in the subject Didactics - English - Discussion and Essays, Jawaharlal Nehru University , course: M.A., language: English, abstract: Masses formed a perpetual threat to culture. Mass thinking/ prejudice/ suggestion would threaten to swamp individual thinking and feeling. Mass democracy was seen as majority rule of the mob or mob-rule which was harmful for a society or government. We think masses denote the working classes - therefore the problem with the masses are not the lowness and gullibility but the power to alter society and to change the capitalist economy - and this is why masses are abhorred by rulers and the makers of law and society. The leaders of the capitalist economy will do everything to prevent a Revolution and the working classes do not want their conscience to be awakened but most importantly nobody wants to acknowledge that true power does lie with the people
