From the author: I already mentioned this thing once, and today we had a late dinner. This thing is the key to understanding politics and the people in it. First of all, let's imagine that any political system is a projection of the consciousness of the country's population. Of course, not a pure reflection, but fairly refracted, and also corrected from the outside by the international political situation and global consciousness (pieces of personality that globalization gives). Two components of projection. A) there is a certain “average person”. A man of mass, right? Let’s not draw a portrait of him for our era (this is a separate topic), but let’s take a look at his skeleton: he does not produce meanings, but swallows them without much chewing. It follows from this that such a person is comfortable being in any environment where there is no need to make a personal choice. And in an environment that is not differentiated by personal tasks, this person will always be more comfortable than a person with another device. At the psychophysiological level, this manifests itself as a stable energy metabolism, without explosions, with the ability to attach to an energy source (thanks to the ability to ingest meanings). At the same time, these can be people who are strong and successful, or with many emotional blocks, who hate life, but nevertheless are stable and protect their stability. B) the opposite: a person who produces meanings, focused on complementing reality, located in a more differentiated field - that is, seeing things more multifaceted, less subjective. At the psychophysiological level, in the absence of proper realization of creative potential, this can lead to an abundance of emotional blocks, or, in the case of successful transformation of reality, represent an effective metabolism. In general, this group of the population is able to see the picture more holistically and, since their consciousness is aimed at improving the environment, they either successfully transform, or are critically dissatisfied with the situation and walk around in a shell of energy clamps. Projection structure. The main source, of course, is the average person. He arrives in harmony with the political situation - positive or negative for him, but, in essence, conflict-free. And the political situation is 80% a reflection of this person, and the visible part is a 100% reflection. And the dissonant light of group “B” is superimposed on this ideal harmony. It can be constructive (if it comes from a self-realizing subject), or destructive (if it comes from a person torn by internal conflict). Positive light frames and represents the natural outer shell of social consciousness, which allows the system, while remaining open, to gain stability and sustainability in development. And to the beginning. Any political system is a projection of the consciousness of the country's population. The determining factor for the political structure is the level of emotional development of the population. The state enters into an unspoken agreement with the transformative part of the population, accepting its demands and carefully introducing them into general harmony. Thus, development and emotional growth of the population and humanity as a whole occurs. This is a good option. If the state does not have group “B” or is represented by people who cannot effectively resolve conflicts within their personality, the state creates an artificial outer shell. There is fuss in the absence of real meaning and general formalization: the well-known bureaucracy, all-patriotism, and then the need for a strong leader, etc. Society is built on the model of a paranoid personality type, with a rigid closed border. There is no exchange of energy, tension accumulates. But sooner or later it will break out in the form of a revolution (civil war), which, if the nature of metabolism does not change, will continue the same story in new faces. PsI do not believe that the standard of living (and civil freedom) is directly related to the level of emotional development of the population. It only gives an opportunity.
