Episode 5 - Is The Mafia a Good Thing? With Professor Dominic Abrams

Bruce and @TheRealDrKev discuss the secret life of groups, cults & crowds with one of the world’s top social psychologists, Professor Dominic Abrams. They ask: Are groups a “necessary evil”...could the world exist without them? When do groups become dangerous? Why do some groups pack more of an “us/them” vibe than others (think football fans, political parties, religious denominations)? What can we learn from the mysterious psychological alchemy of cults? And...are governments losing control of groups within society? If so, are organisations such as the Mafia really such a bad thing?Please make sure you like, subscribe, rate, review and comment wherever you get your Podcasts from.
