From Mental Manipulation to the Global Cult? Denis Duclos in Le Monde diplomatique
A CNRS research director's August 2000 essay: the cults amplify the society that denounces them, embracing its faith in education, media, networks and management, and the three great reactions to cultural crisis - accept, criticise, flee. Written as the French parliament voted mental manipulation into law, it argues that both the French repression and the American pressure reduce free will, and that the planetary market may be the largest cult of all.
