520 The program explores the ideas of Ernest Dichter and how
those in power in post-war America used Freud's ideas
about the unconscious mind to try and control the masses.
Politicians and planners came to believe Freud's
underlying premise - that deep within all human beings
were dangerous and irrational desires and fears. They were
convinced that it was the unleashing of these instincts
that had led to the barbarism of Nazi Germany. To stop it
ever happening again they set out to find ways to control
this hidden enemy within the human mind. Sigmund Freud's
daughter, Anna, and his nephew, Edward Bernays, provided
the centrepiece philosophy. The US government, big
business, and the CIA used their ideas to develop
techniques to manage and control the minds of the American
people. But rather than a cynical exercise in manipulation,
those in power believed that the only way to make
democracy work and create a stable society was to repress
the savage barbarism that lurked just under the surface of
normal American life.
