The emergence of a public request for the realization of special abilities of a person, focused on children, is typical for countries where awareness of their own intellectual backwardness has become a consequence of comparison with others. This is the so-called post-totalitarian or, more specifically, post-communist countries, different from the free world, as thoroughly proved by the study "Psychotherapy in the Western World and in the USSR" (1973) by one of the most prominent hypnotherapists and psychotherapists of the world Dr. Eugene Hlywa (Sydney, Australia). In particular, a definite stature, inherent in every human population, the aggregate of the capacities of people's abilities is roughly equal in each country. However, the countries of the free world, by their freedom of expression and respect for this individual self-expression, create conditions for the implementation of any capacities of abilities, while totalitarian - only conditions for a relatively small number of able people, sufficient to serve the interests of the ruling elite. Everyone else, as it was already in the history of Ukraine at the beginning of the 20th century, was destroyed: most Ukrainian kobzars were shot at Kharkiv, Ukrainian poets, writers and playwrights - shot in the Sandarmokh Karelian tract, etc. Comparison of ancient Greek cities confirms the vitality of Athens as a city of free prosperity of human abilities and the decline of Sparta, which served as an example of a state organization for future communist and national-socialist leaders of the USSR and the Third Reich.
