It examines the developments in the period between 1933 and 1955. During this time high-ranking Nazis, local residents, tourists and pilgrims appropriated the house for their purposes by creating various narratives about this space. As unimportant as the house might have been to Hitler himself from the point of view of sentimentality and childhood nostalgia, it had great propaganda value for promoting the image of the private Führer. Braunau itself was turned into a tourist destination and pilgrimage site during the Nazi period—and beyond.

  • Like Water and Vapor--Conformity and Independence in the Large Group
    Like Vapor and Water... 1 Like Water and Vapor--Conformity and Independence in the Large Group by Eugen Tarnow Behavioral Science v41, 136-151 (1996). Abstract Conformity and independence in the large group may, in part, be due to collective phenomena analogous to those producing different physical phases like solid, liquid and vapor. This phase model of the large group explains several previous anecdotal observations: It predicts a suddenness in the decision making, it explains the apparent contradiction between crowd suggestibility on the one hand and the difficulty of controlling a crowd on the other hand, and it provides a new rationalization for the phenomenon of splitting. The model is of use to both leaders and members of the large group. For example, it suggests what social parameters to change to disperse a violent crowd, and why crowd crystals, a concept examined by the writer Canetti, can suddenly make the large group conform. Key words: Collective phenomena, large group, crowd, phases, phase transitions, conformity. Like Vapor and Water... 2 Like Water and Vapor--Conformity and Independence in the Large Group Introduction One hundred years ago Le Bon (1895) wrote, in his famous book on crowds: "The substitution of the unconscious action of crowds for the conscious activity of individuals is one of the principal characteristics of the present age." Large groups with people acting in unison can be powerful catalysts for the good as well as for the horrible. Examples of the former include the destruction of the Berlin Wall, the wearing of stars of David by the non-Jewish population in Denmark during the Holocaust, and the civil rights movement in the U.S.
