The city crowd was both an anonymous phenomenon in which the individual could hide, and the place where identity (crucially, at times political identity) could be invented. The crowd became a key image of the conflicting values associated with the modern urban environment.

THE POLITICAL CROWD ...

The revolutionary crowd harangued by Lenin or Trotsky in 1917.

The mass disciplined ranks of Hitler worship at the Nazi Nuremberg Rallies of 1933.

The crowd as chaotic exuberance, as depicted in King Vidor’s (1894-1982) film The Crowd (1928), or at the end of Marcel Carné’s (1900–96) Les Enfants du Paradis (1945).
