This edited volume provides new perspectives on how shame is
experienced and transformed within digital worlds and Industry 4.0.
The editors and authors discuss how individuals and organisations
can constructively transform shame at work, in professional and
private contexts, and with regard to socio-cultural lifestyle
changes, founded in digitalisation and Industry 4.0. The
contributions in this volume enable researchers and practitioners
alike to unlock the topic of shame and its specifics in the highly
dynamic and rapidly changing times to explore this emotion in depth
in connection with remote workplaces, home office, automated
realities and smart systems, or digitalised life- and working
styles. By employing transdisciplinary and transcultural
perspectives, the volume further discusses shame in the context of
new lifestyles, religion, gender, sexual suppression, mental
illness, and the nature of citizenship. Researchers, practitioners
and students in the fields of industrial and organisational
psychology, positive psychology, organisational studies, future
studies, health and occupational science and therapy, emotion
sciences, management, leadership and human resources will find the
contributions highly topical, insightful and applicable to
practice. Fresh, timely, thought-provoking with each turn of the
page, this impressive volume explores shame in today's world.
Moving beyond the simple "guilt is good; shame is bad" perspective,
authors from diverse disciplines examine adaptive and maladaptive
aspects of shame in the context of contemporary issues (e.g.,
social media use, COVID-19) via multiple cultural and social
lenses. Aptly named, Shame 4.0 is a treasure trove of rich ideas
ripe for empirical study - a blueprint for the next generation of
research on this complex and ubiquitous emotion. Bravo! --June
Tangney, PhD, University Professor and Professor of Psychology,
George Mason University, USA Uncovering Shame - To a much greater
extent than other emotions like anger, grief, and fear, until
recently most shame in modern societies has been hidden from sight.
The text you see in this book is one of the steps that is being
taken to make it more visible and therefore controllable. -- Thomas
Scheff, Prof. Emeritus Department of Sociology, UCSB, Santa
