Items related to Humiliation: Claims and Context (Oxford India Paperbacks)
Synopsis
A pioneering work in the field of political and moral theory, Humiliation explores the complex and varied meanings, contexts, forms, and languages of humiliation within an interdisciplinary framework. This volume argues that humiliation is endemic to social life which is active through asymmetries of intersecting sets of attitudes--arrogance and obeisance, self-respect and servility, and reverence and repulsion. The essays unfold the meaning of humiliation by juxtaposing it with other concepts such as shame, disgust, discrimination, degradation, and segregation.
