No one can remain unaware of the strange and somewhat shocking appearance of new social phenomena identified as the generation gap. Rebellion of younger persons against the establishment is a problem that has existed probably since the beginning of time. Freud in Totem and Taboo suggested that sons always must ultimately destroy the father, namely, the establishment, the power structure. In this way sons become fathers, or in more sexual terms, conquer women for themselves. Rebelliousness of youth against authority has taken many forms. We are addressing ourselves at this point in history, however, to the particular manifestations of anti-establishment, anti-conventionality, individual and group flaunting of the prevailing social order by young men and women massed under the rubric The Hippie Movement in the United States.
