"Mass Psychology” Helps Crime Wave

MASS PSYCHOLOGY is now one of the most important factors in crime waves.

Publicity given the “simple action of obtaining a lot of money with a little luck lowers the public standard of indignation” to where a_ bank robber is looked upon as a_ hero rather than an outcast.

These beliefs were expressed at Nanaimo by Dr. M. Giunio Zorkin.

War Helped

He drew on his experience as a representative on the Allied war commission and as a former lawyer in Yugoslavia to trace the tolerance to crime.

Major application of mass psy- chology was made during the Second World War in crimes that later appalled the world and have left their mark on the post-war generation, he said.

Emphasis on crime in the press, he contended, influences people to a lower standard of moral indignation, just as whole communities and coun- tries became adjusted in wartime to atrocities.

Thin Coat

Dr. Zorkin said that human nature is covered by a “thin coat of civiliza- tion.” It took but a scratch to reveal the much stronger animal instinct, which was a sign of present-day mass psychology to crime.

He feared that the early “dis- proven” theory of the Italian crim- inologist, Prof. Lesare Lombroso, that 80 per cent of crime is committed by “born criminals,” is now being borne out by the influence of mass psychology.

“Mass psychology is one of the most important factors in criminology to- day,” he warned. * *
