Hatred is often considered the opposite of love, but in many ways is
much more complicated. It also may be considered one of the dominant
emotions of our time, as individuals, groups, and even nations express
or enact hatred to varying degrees. What is hatred? Where does it come
from and what does it reveal about the hater? And is hatred always a bad
thing?
Brogaard makes a deep dive into the moral psychology of
one of our most complex, and vivid emotions. She explores how hatred
arises between people and among groups. She also shows how hate, like
anger, can sometimes be appropriate and fitting. Other other questions
she addresses are, how does hate differ from anger, disgust, fear, and
other related emotions? Is fear an essential part of hatred? How does
hatred affect what happens inside the brain? How did hate evolve in
human history? Is hatred ever morally justified? Can you hate and love
at the same time? Can one hate oneself? How do implicit biases trigger
hatred of groups?
This accessible, timely, and novel look at an
underexplored emotion will employ examples from current events as well
as art and literature and popular culture.
