Abstract

The psychoanalyst Host-Eberhard Richter illustrates his opinion on the personification of politics. He talks about politics and image, about the perceptive faculty and the willingness to critical observation in society. He discusses the transfer of psychoanalysis on political behaviour and points out that many politicians are afraid of psychological counselling. Talking about the relationship between politics, elector and media, he describes the suggestive process. Finally he underlines that children are abel to understand media and are able to look behind the curtain.
