    <p>Ah, but HIS is a SuperDuperEgo... just ask him, he'll tell ya!</p>

    <p>I don't know what your stake (or dog in the fight or ... pick a

      metaphor) is regarding collective

      consciousness/awareness/intelligence/wisdom/action in the abstract

      but it seems your background would support having an opinion or

      more to the point a thought-through-thought or two on the topic.</p>

    <p>If there are suitable parallels between individual consciousness

      and collective versions of it, what would be the superego of a

      culture, people, nation-state, etc.?</p>
