Description

In a world facing environmental catastrophe, terrorism, and biological or virtual viruses, the question of why we react with fear is more relevant than ever. Panic (Shortcuts) by Routledge provides a deep look into the nature of panic and the reasons behind its occurrence in modern society.

By examining sociology, cultural studies, and popular psychology, this book explores how panic functions on both an individual and collective level. The text brings together diverse sources, including films, novels, and current affairs, to help readers understand the mechanics of social fear. This book is an essential resource for those interested in how modern threats shape human behavior and social structures. It encourages critical thought about the drivers of panic in our current era, making it a valuable addition to any collection focused on anthropology, sociology, or social sciences.
