Breaking Morale Through a 'Strategy of Terror' - Ed Jewett - 05-05-2011
Breaking Morale Through a 'Strategy of Terror'
Kurt Lewin, Tavistock
"One of the main techniques for breaking morale
through a strategy of terror' consists in exactly this
tactickeep the person hazy as to where he stands and
just what he may expect. If, in addition, frequent vacillations
between severe disciplinary measures and promises
of good treatment, together with the spreading of
contradictory news, make the cognitive structure of this
situation utterly unclear, then the individual may cease
to know when a particular plan would lead toward or
away from his goal. Under these conditions, even those
individuals who have definite goals and are ready to
take risks will be paralyzed with severe inner conflicts
in regard to what to do."
Lewin set the tone for what is now called "behavioral
economics": Instead of a republic's government
serving its citizens, an empire's oligarchy rules its subjects
by playing on popular ignorance and irrationality.
