Sažetak
Under such a general title, two chapters of the same author from the book »Social Psychology« are being published. The book will appear at the beginning of 1976. in the edition of Zagreb publishing enterprise »Školska knjiga«.
The first chapter of »Brainwashing« has been taken from the part about the psychology of propaganda. The author emphasizes that the general term comprises, in fact, the whole series of educational propagandist procedures and methods aiming at changes in the structure of personality of the person who has been subjected to the treatment. Analyzing in detail, the unscrupulous and cruel physical, social and psychological pressure of that extremely non-human procedure, the author ends the chapter by working out the psychological process of psycho-social disintegration through phases (shock phase, phase of dissociation. conversion phase and phase of res ti tuition), the process itself being the result of all the pressures upon the victim.
The second chapter »Analysis of a Murder« (from the part about the criminal psychology) represents, in fact, the result of the professional psychological expert analysis carried out by the author and required by the court dealing with the case of a murder. In this way, the text has resulted from the application of a case-study method in working out the psycho-criminal behavior of an individual-delinquent, and its value lies in the fact that in the concrete case, the entire complex dynamics of a real criminal act has been directly obvious.
