ABSTRACT
This chapter looks at the future of Carl Jungian theory and consider how some of C. G. Jung's observations and hypotheses could be reformulated using post-Jungian ideas to propose a revised theory of the collective. The 'post-Jungian' part of the model is of a socio-historical construction of master-memeplexes and memeplexes that goes to make long-term political forms and collective structures of meaning. The use of memetic political forms allows a dual-track geological model to be built featuring a binary model of the unconscious. Having introduced memetic political forms one can first apply them to international politics and then move on to apply them to Jung's observations on the politics of the Third Reich. Even when the political actors are more sophisticated they can become captives of the systemic momentum of a memeplex. The unconscious archetypal factors and unconscious socio-cultural factors also have an interaction that has its own dynamics.
