{The Hero and the Committee (1)}[14th February 1988]

I am not sure to what extent I have noted this before, but television coverage of a 'presidential'-style election campaign in the Young Conservatives brought it to mind: how the Right wing (blue, M~) tend to go in for hero-worship, the Left wing (red, G~) for committees ('Right' and 'Left' are general and relative descriptions). This of course fits the characterisation of single-mindedness as more to the Right (M~), and of multiplicity of personality as more to the Left (G~) of the Circles.*


*In organisations of the Right, committee work is perhaps seen as a female speciality; in organisations of the Left (and of the Right), heroes are almost invariably males (or, in **Mrs. Thatcher's case, perhaps [‘]male[’] in her heroism, [‘]female[’] in her revolutionary inspiration).
[The gender descriptions refer to Circle archetypes; no conclusions should be drawn about individuals. <20180111>]

**[Margaret Hilda Thatcher, Baroness Thatcher, LG, OM, PC, FRS, FRIC was a British stateswoman, who served as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1979 to 1990 and as Leader of the Conservative Party from 1975 to 1990 (– Wikipedia)]
