Further implications in analyzing contempt in modern society
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 30 October 2017
Abstract
The target article by Gervais & Fessler represents a comprehensive analysis of contempt but is not fully adequate in addressing how contempt produces hatred, how contempt is used manipulatively by aspiring leaders, and how contempt can be cured or at least mitigated. This commentary addresses these concerns.
