Long ago in 1552, Étienne de la Boétie asked these same questions in The Politics of Obedience: The Discourse of Voluntary Servitude (Montréal: Black Rose Books, 1997). He explains why the oppressed submit voluntarily to tyranny, even in the absence of state repression. His astute observations constitute what I would call “a psychology of political obedience.” De la Boétie’s explanations in terms of collusion and mystification, for example, converge with aspects of the “magical” and “naïve” stages of conscientization that I describe in chapter 1 of this volume. In these stages the obedience of the oppressed results from colluding with political authority and being mystified by the oppressor’s ideologies. I am grateful to Ulrich Hausmann, journalist and friend, who brought de la Boétie to my attention after reading a draft of this book. 4.

He insists that changing oppressive social structures does not necessarily change individuals and consciousness. See Arnold Mindell, Sitting in the Fire: Large Group Transformation Using Conflict and Diversity (Portland, OR: Lao Tse Press, 1995), 226. His book offers programs to resolve conflicts and increase awareness in large groups of oppressed persons. 16. Jungian analysts have written books on other aspects of politics and oppression.
