Adult observation in politics

Authors

  • Ulrich Sollmann

Abstract

Politics are nowadays often connected with the personality of a politician. The personality shows up with its typical patterns of behavior. It is also perceived in this way. Identification and projection are often induced and intensified by the staging for and by the media. Adult observation, that is, the observation of the behavior of adults, helps to realize the process of personification and media staging of politics as well as to analyze and to judge it.

Keywords Patterns of behavior; Body language; Affect; Identification and politics; Virtual person; Becoming prominent
