Police

Parramatta: A Dictionary of Place and Memory - P

An archetype inside every human being, an aspect that seeks to correct, punish, judge the lives and actions of others.

It fantasises that if it were in charge, the world would be much better.

A controller that speaks always in terms of rules and punishment.

In a creative sense, this is the one who jumps in to say why something can’t be done because of some unspoken rule.

Wherever there’s a rule, this archetype is a stickler for it.
