Reich Para Principiantes Pdf

Reich tried to merge Marxism with psychoanalysis. He argued that sexual repression was the root of authoritarianism. The Nazis hated him; the Communists expelled him. He fled to the United States.

This is the phase that destroyed his reputation. Reich claimed to have discovered a cosmic life energy called orgone . He built "orgone accumulators" (boxes to concentrate this energy) and claimed they could cure cancer. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) deemed this fraudulent. Reich was imprisoned for contempt of court and died in federal prison in 1957. reich para principiantes pdf
