How cultures feel, act and buy. Decoding the unconscious minds of cultures, both business and social.
Dr. Rapaille is the host of the TV
series of 13 episodes, The Culture Code. Each
episode explores the depth of the collective
cultural unconscious through stereotypes and
cliches, but also through cultural archetypes,
unconscious codes, patterns and repetitive
structures. Why do American's like guns? Why
do the French like food, Germans process, and
why are the Japanese certain that they are the
chosen race? Are cultures changing? Or
pretending? Find out by watching the Culture
code series.
