This volume explores contemporary social conflict, focusing on a
sort of violence that rarely receives coverage in the evening news.
This violence occurs when powerful institutions seek to manipulate
the thoughts of marginalized people-manufacturing their feelings
and fostering a sense of inferiority-for the purpose of
disciplinary control. Many American institutions strategically
orchestrate this psychic violence through tactics of systemic
humiliation. This book reveals how certain counter-measures, based
in a commitment to human dignity and respect for every person's
inherent moral worth, can combat this violence. Rothbart and other
contributors showcase various examples of this tug-of-war in the
US, including the politics of race and class in the 2016
presidential campaign, the dehumanizing treatment of people with
mental disabilities, and destructive parenting styles that foster
cycles of humiliation and emotional pain.
