Social psychology of good and evil

The struggle of good with evil has lasted centuries - in most cases we become its witnesses, sometimes, unfortunately, direct participants. The progress of civilization made evil more sophisticated, allowing him to disguise himself, sometimes even under the guise of good intentions. The methods of counteraction are also developing, but, unfortunately, not as fast as we would like. It would seem that the eternal topic that a lot was said, but the scientific research of this struggle was carried out very little. The authors of this book decided to replenish this gap, challenging a peculiar challenge of the entire field of psychology, which always tried to stay away from such ethically controversial issues. The authors offer a fundamental analysis of all kinds of manifestations of evil, its forms, factors (individual, social, situational), consequences (both for the initiators themselves and for victims, short -term and long -term), argue the causes and ways to avoid it, affect the issues of responsibility and motivation , the role of technology and globalization in the spread of evil.
The book, first of all, will be interesting to social psychologists, sociologists, as well as to all those who are not indifferent to the modern frightening situation in the world. It will make you look at a lot in a different way, rethink a lot and will become a powerful incentive to increase the possibilities for manifesting kindness
