Nils Beerut
Nils Beerut was a Swedish psychiatrist renowned for coining the term 'Stockholm Syndrome' following a bank robbery in Stockholm in 1973, where hostages developed a bond with their captors. His insights into the psychological phenomenon of 'identification with the aggressor' helped explain the seemingly irrational loyalty exhibited by hostages towards their captors, a concept that gained immense popularity in media and psychology.
