                        %VULNERABILITY OF LEGALISTS 781201

     Legalists   tend   to  be  dedicated   to   technical
definitions  of  duty.   To the extent that legalists  are
faithful to their conceptions of proper  morals,   ethical
principles,  duties, responsibilities, etc. their behavior
can  be predicted with a high level of confidence.   Their
laws specify the proper behavior for each circumstance. To
manipulate  a legalist you merely have to  manipulate  the
circumstance to call for the behavior prescribed for  that
circumstance.   You may select the desired behavior,   and
then manipulate the legalist's environment so as to create
the circumstances which will elicit the desired behavior.

     Legalists tend to give relativity little attention to
non-objective  realities  such  as  affection,   feelings,
emotions,  desires, etc.   Such realities can not be dealt
with objectively with enough confidence to count for  much
in a court of law.   Thus,  legalists codes of law tend to
deal with the more objective aspects of circumstances. The
manipulation  of  the environment thus need not  pay  much
respect to feelings,  emotions,  desires,  and  affection.
Duty  tends to be defined in more objective terms.   As  a
result,   legalists may be manipulated with little  regard
for  their feelings,  emotions,  desires,  and affectional
needs.    In  fact,   this  leaves  manipulators  free  to
manipulate feelings,  emotions,  desires,  and affectional
circumstances in ways to supplement the impact of the call
of   duty   occasioned  by   the   manipulated   objective
circumstances.    Alternatively,  the manipulator  of  the
legalist may be free to gain emotional satisfaction out of
emotional violence against the legalist, while at the same
time  getting the legalist to behave as desired by  clever
manipulation  of circumstances so as to make the  legalist
duty-bound  to  do  a s  the  manipulator  desires.    The
legalist is the victim of double jeopardy.

     The  situation  may  be improved by  the  manipulator
and/or  legalist  showing  a  more  balanced  respect  for
feelings  and  desires  of self and other in  contrast  to
duties  and responsibilities of self and other.   Lack  of
balance generates problems.   To resolve problems  usually
calls for a balanced effort to restore balance.
