商品簡介
Not why they themselves hate, or even why sociologists hate, but why large groups of people hate other large groups of people, is the question Levin and Rabrenovic (both: sociology, Northeastern U.) take up. They examine hate as expressed in widespread violence, fear, and revenge; and explore its roots in human nature, the mass media, culture, politics, and the economy.
