codeorama Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 Trying to help out a friend and I didn't find much on Amazon.com, but he's doing a paper on manipulation the masses a'la Hitler. I"ve seen a show on the discovery channel that dealt with his gestures and "charisma" but can't seem to find a book or website. If anyone has any suggestions, that would be cool. Doesn't have to deal specifically with Hitler, but anything similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfitzo53 Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 Die Welle ("The Wave", it's available in translation) is based on a true story about a high-school history teacher. His class refuses to believe that people could be so easily brainwashed, so he gradually turns the class into a Nazi-esque group under his control, and then shows them what they've become. I think it took place in California in the 60s or 70s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
