Overview
- The book introduces the idea of the existence of a continuum of aggressive marginalisation phenomena, ranging from the unfortunately commonplace experiences of prejudice, discrimination and bullying behaviour, through to cultural and physical genocide.
- In this book an eight-stage model of physical genocide is introduced, based on insights from social cognitive psychology, and exemplified in the genocide levelled against indigenous peoples of the New World.
- The book presents an explicit specific consideration of the implementation of cultural genocide against indigenous peoples, through the actions of educational systems and educators.
