Description

Explore the universal phenomenon of scapegoating with this insightful work from Routledge. Scapegoats appear in every society, from small private groups to large public organizations. This book provides a deep look into why individuals and groups are targeted to avoid responsibility. Author Tom Douglas examines the entire process of scapegoating by looking at the perspectives of both the victims and the perpetrators. You will follow the development of this behavior from its earliest origins as a rite of atonement to the modern methods used to avoid blame and victimize the innocent. By comparing ancient practices with contemporary forms, this text reveals how the drive to transfer blame remains a constant in human history. It is an essential read for those interested in social psychology and the mechanics of group behavior.
