Abstract
This article aims to bring to the forefront the approach to the concept of mass from multiple perspectives - psychological, psychoanalytical, philosophical and anthropological - in order to explain a unique historical phenomenon that has remained in the collective memory as the period when the human spirit lost its way in the context of massification and globalization. The aim of this article is to use the concept of mass to study themes with deep resonances in philosophy such as depersonalisation, alienation and loss of discernment in order to create a panoramic view of the causes behind the emergence of totalitarianism.
