Querida Eva:
?
¡Fue un viaje estupendo! Primero fui a Buenos Aires y estuve sola allí cuatro días. Pude ir de compras a los grandes centros comerciales como Alto Palermo y Galerías Pacífico, donde también me sentaba a tomar un café por las tardes y leía o escribía mensajes de texto. Me encanta la vida en las grandes ciudades.
?
Días después, Rafael también vino a Buenos Aires y nosotros hicimos varias cosas juntos. Fuimos a los clubes de tango y miramos cómo bailaba la gente. Nosotros también lo intentamos, ¡pero es muy difícil!
?
Después, fuimos a Mendoza. Tú dijiste que tu madre nació allí, ¿verdad? Estuvimos tres días en Mendoza y yo le di una sorpresa a Rafael. Hice reservaciones para ir a Bariloche a esquiar. Rafael no supo de mis planes hasta la última noche en Mendoza. Esa noche le di los boletos de avión pero, ¿sabes qué? ¡Rafael no quería ir! Lo discutimos por bastante tiempo y por fin yo supe por qué.
?
Rafael me dijo que él también tenía una sorpresa para mí. ¡Me dio boletos a Iguazú, para ver las cataratas (waterfalls)! Pues, al final, ¡tuvimos que ir a los dos lugares! Nos divertimos mucho. Volvimos aquí ayer, cansados pero muy contentos.
?
Bueno, te puedo contar más en otro correo electrónico.
?
Un beso,
Bea

Al principio, Rafael no quería ir a Mendoza.

Exhorted by their leader, some 900 members of the Reverend Jim Jones' People's Temple picked up paper cups and drank purple Kool-Aid laced with the deadly poison cyanide. Psychologically, the mass suicide at Jonestown in 1978 is not so incredible as it might seem. The inhabitants of Jonestown were isolated in the jungles of Guyana, intimidated by guards, and lulled with sedatives. They were also
cut off from friends and relatives and totally accustomed to obeying rigid rules of conduct, which primed them for Jones' final "loyalty test." Of greater psychological interest is the question of how people reach such a state of commitment and dependency. Why do people join groups such as the People's Temple? The People's Temple was a classic example of a cult. A cult is a group in which the leader's personality is more important than the beliefs she or he preaches. Cult members give their allegiances to this person, who is regarded as infallible, and they follow his or her dictates without question. Almost always, cult members are victimized by their leaders in some way or another. Psychologist Margaret Singer has studied and aided hundreds of former cult members. Her interviews reveal that in recruiting new members, cults use a powerful blend of guilt, manipulation, isolation, deception, fear, and escalating commitment. In this respect, cults employ high-pressure indoctrination techniques not unlike those used in brainwashing. In the United States alone, an estimated 2 to 5 million people have succumbed to the lure of cults. How are the techniques used by cults similar to those used in brainwashing? a. Both use multiple leaders who rotate command. b. Members of the group are encouraged to be independent thinkers. c. High-pressure indoctrination is used in both. d. Victims are encouraged to socialize with others outside the group.
