emigrated in 1938 to Switzerland, from where he moved on via Britain
in 1939 to the USA in 1940. There he emerged in the mid-1940s as a
psychiatrist and psychoanalyst and director of the Hacker Clinic in Beverly
Hills. He made a name as a researcher on aggression and as a crisis
counsellor. In 1968 he created the Siegmund Freud Society in Vienna and
became its president. His best-known book is Aggression: Die Brutalisierung
der modernen Welt (1971).
