Our readingWhat is a korrent?
Drawn from what Gustave Le Bon said
innovation Where new things come from and how they spread: invention against diffusion, and being near the factory floor.
Had democracies possessed the power they wield to-day at the time of the invention of mechanical looms or of the introduction of steam-power and of railways, the realisation of these inventions would have been impossible, or would have been achieved at the cost of revolutions and repeated massacres.
