To change man, the audience by which he judjes himself must be changed. A man is defined by his audience: by the people, institutions, authors, magazines, movie heroes, philosophers by whom he pictures himself being cheered and booed. Major psychological disturbances, 'identity crises,' are caused when an individual begins to change the audience for whom he plays: from parents to peers; from peers to the works of Albert Camus; from the Bible to Hugh Hefner. The change from I-am-he-who-is-a-good-son to I-am-he-who-is-a-good-budy constitutes a revolution. On the other hand, if the man's buddies approve fidelity one year and infidelity the next, and the man chnages from faithful husband to rake, no revolution has occurred. The class rule remains intact; only the policy of on a minor matter has been altered.
