Recenzii
Entitlement's Response to Social Progress is a timely and unmissable read. Committed to giving context to Trump's political ascendency, the book focuses on the overlooked and elusive ways in which entitlement - defined as "the inflated sense of deservingness one has as a result of power and the benefits of privilege"- operates at different intersecting nodes in perpetuating inequality. With each page, Anderson artfully exposes how entitlement silently sustains many gender, sexual, racial, and class oppressions which are detrimental to humanity, democracy, and the planet.
Real, raw, relatable, and relevant. These are four words that best describe Anderson's approach to psychological entitlement and how it reinforces inequality in her book Enraged, Rattled, and Wronged. Her thorough investigation from a social psychological research perspective of "how we got here" (i.e., a Trump presidency) is eye-opening and informative. Her writing style allows readers to understand how social forces have shaped not just this election, but previous elections and, most likely, future elections ... I highly recommend this book for those looking to learn, to grow, and to feel a sense of understanding (even if still enraged) of "how we got here."
Donald Trump may soon be history. But the mental legacy his presidency leaves behind will be with us for a long time. More than any president before, he stimulated that affect so central to contemporary social struggles: entitlement. Enraged, Rattled, and Wronged brilliantly and exceedingly illuminates for us how members of previously privileged communities transform their feelings of loss, deprivation, and disadvantage into resentment and resistance to social progress. A study at the cutting edge of a pressing question of our times.
Kristin Anderson's Enraged, Rattled, and Wronged could not be timelier and more needed. As our society moves toward greater inclusivity and social justice, authoritarian and hate movements have become more emboldened. In her outstanding book, Anderson explains the psychology of privilege and entitlement based on being white, male, heterosexual, and wealthy. Her book is accessible for general audiences and well suited for use in classrooms.
What a timely and important book. This well-researched and deep analysis of entitlement as a major psychological concept to understand persistent and sometimes violent social inequities in the US and globally is much needed. Anderson draws on decades of social science research to show how parents, teachers, peers, and media socialize specific groups to feel a strong sense of entitlement, with consequences that harm not only those around them but themselves. Enraged, Rattled, and Wronged argues convincingly that big issues such as climate change denial and challenges to democracy can be more clearly understood through the lens of entitlement. This is a very thoughtful and thought-provoking book.
