Abstract

The article substantiates the basis of a constructive approach to solving the problem of positive transformations in the psychology of the Moscovites based on processing the work of unsurpassed connoisseurs of the psychology of peoples and masses and dictators of the 19-20th centuries. It also reflects the reasons for the formation of those personality traits of Putin in his childhood and adolescence, united in the desire for power. It is shown that despite Putin’s pathologic negligence, kleptomania, and mafia-bandit mentality, signs of a paranoid form of schizophrenia are found in his activities: ideas-fixes, persecution mania, etc. Probably, he also has mental pathology, which was studied and called ‘disintegration syndrome’ by E. Fromm. They are necrophiles, meaning they love death, the dead, and destruction.
Moreover, we also analysed the psychological mechanisms of the transformation of the masses into ‘cattle mass’, which succeeds under certain conditions. Such conditions were and are in Muscovy-Russia. The main one is the tendency of Moscovites to slavery. There are facts confirming that in the functioning of propensities and other components of orientation (value orientations, worldviews, etc.) as a matrix of motivational dynamics of ethno-national communities the bio-genetic factor does not play a role. The main means of formation and functioning of this matrix is tradition – the main form of representation and affirmation of society, in which it fixes basic knowledge about itself, its spiritual values, etc. Changing traditions is very difficult, but not impossible. It is capable and should be carried out by the intellectual elite of the nation and the state created by it, first of all, its part, which cherishes humanistic spiritual values – orientation to the good.
The key task of this work is justified: the formation of a type of character based on independence, persistence, ingenuity, and biophilia – the love of life. The article also proposes the necessary conditions for the success of this work: 1) the awareness of the oppressed population of the regions of the Russian Federation of their self-sufficiency and their ability to dispose of the wealth of their own land; 2) the rejection of nuclear weapons and the final collapse of the Moscow Empire so that these factors do not support the illusion of greatness; 3) the philosophy and psychology of remorse for all the horrific crimes committed by the Moscow State against humanity; and 4) quality humanistic education, primarily – a truthful history.
