totem und tabu

Totem and Taboo, by Sigmund Freud, explores the origins of culture, morality, and religion through the lenses of psychoanalysis. Examining totemism and taboo practices in primitive societies, Freud argues that these societal structures reflect underlying psychological processes, particularly the Oedipus complex and primal horde dynamics, offering insights into the development of human social behavior and the nature of the unconscious mind.
