If, for a moment, we regard mankind as one individual, we see that the human race is like a person carried away by unconscious powers; and the human race also likes to keep certain problems tucked away in separate drawers … Our world is, so to speak, dissociated like a neurotic, with the Iron Curtain making a symbolic line of division… . It is the face of his own evil shadow that grins at Western man from the other side of the Iron Curtain (Jung, 1964:85).
