Hallucination and psychopathy

Pages 4-15 | Received 08 Aug 2007, Published online: 19 Mar 2008
 

Abstract

Hallucination is a formative part of human experience and silently plays a role in constituting what we take as sane and real. When things go well enough, it is offset by other tendencies and contributes to the intensity and color of life. At the present time, it is part of a psychopathic manipulation of political and economic life and contributes to destructive scenarios masked by self-interest. The present paper focuses on hallucinatory psychopathy in the Bush government and the economic-military mania that permeates America's will to power.
