Book Description

Chapitre I. Les forces nouvelles qui mènent le monde Les raisons premières étant inaccessibles, la nature intime des forces physiques demeure inconnue. Pour les définir, on en est réduit à dire qu’elles sont « des causes de mouvement ». La nature intime des mobiles qui font agir les hommes restant aussi ignorée que celle des forces physiques, il faut imiter la réserve des savants et donner simplement le nom de forces aux causes diverses de nos actions. Ces forces peuvent être internes, c’est-à-dire issues de nous-mêmes : telles les forces biologiques, affectives, mystiques et intellectuelles. Elles peuvent aussi être indépendantes de nous : tels le milieu et les influences économiques. Pendant toute la durée de la préhistoire, les forces biologiques, la faim surtout, dominèrent presque exclusivement l’existence. L’humanité n’avait d’autre idéal possible que se nourrir et se reproduire. Après des entassements d’âges, la vie devint un peu plus facile et des ébauches de sociétés naquirent. À la tribu nomade succédèrent des villages, des cités et enfin des empires. C’est alors seulement que purent s’édifier les grandes civilisations. Elles furent de types différents, suivant les forces qui les orientèrent. Les besoins biologiques et certains éléments affectifs, tels que l’ambition, engendrèrent des civilisations de type militaire analogues à celles de Rome et des grandes monarchies asiatiques. Lorsque les forces intellectuelles devinrent prépondérantes, ce fut la civilisation hellénique avec ses merveilles de la pensée et de l’art. Quand les forces mystiques l’emportèrent, ce fut le Moyen âge avec ses cathédrales et sa vie religieuse intense.

Gustave Le Bon

Gustave Le Bon: The French physician and historian Gustave Le Bon is one of the most famous foreign historians who were interested in studying Eastern, Arab and Islamic civilizations. He was born in Nouges-Loretro, France in 1841. He studied medicine and toured Europe, Asia and North Africa. He was interested in psychiatry and produced a group of influential researches on group behavior, popular culture, and the means of influencing the masses, which made his research an essential reference in psychology, and among researchers in the media in the first half of the twentieth century. He contributed to the debate about matter and energy, and authored his book The Evolution of Materials, which was very popular in France. He achieved great success with his book "The Psychology of the Crowds", which gave him a good reputation in the scientific community, which was completed with his best-selling book "The Masses: A Study in the Collective Mind". Valery, Henri Bergson, and Henri Poincaré. He was known as one of the most famous philosophers of the West who did justice to the Arab nation and Islamic civilization. He did not follow the path of European historians, whose traditions have become to deny the virtue of Islam over the Western world. But Le Bon, who traveled in the Islamic world and has social investigations in it, acknowledged that Muslims were the ones who civilized Europe, so he thought that the golden age of the Arabs would be resurrected from his shrine, and that he would show it to the world in its true form; In 1884 AD, he authored the book “The Civilization of the Arabs” integrating the elements of Arab civilization and its impact on the world, and examined the causes of its greatness and decline, and presented it to the world as a debtor who owes credit to the creditor. He died in Marne-La-Coquet, France, in 1931.
