This volume presents the latest thinking and research about what it means to be human and why people dehumanize others (and sometimes themselves). Contributions provide new insights into the history of dehumanization, its different types, and new theories are proposed for when and why dehumanization occurs. The volume shows how this is important in understanding issues as diverse as ethnic conflict, medical practice, policing, gender relations, and our relationship with the natural environment.

This volume presents the latest thinking and research about what it means to be human and why people dehumanize others (and sometimes themselves). Contributions provide new insights into the history of dehumanization, its different types, and new theories are proposed for when and why dehumanization occurs. The volume shows how this is important in understanding issues as diverse as ethnic conflict, medical practice, policing, gender relations, and our relationship with the natural environment. Cultural differences and similarities in beliefs about humanness are explored, along with strategies to overcome dehumanization. The volume will inform future research on the topic for years to come.
