Collective effervescence

Collective effervescence (CE) is a sociological concept coined by Émile Durkheim, it is also known as Egregore. According to Durkheim, a community or society may at times come together and simultaneously communicate the same thought and participate in the same action. Such an event then causes collective effervescence which excites individuals and serves to unify the group.[1]
