Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book delves into the psychological reasons behind why individuals compare themselves to others of varying social statuses. It highlights the persistent economic inequality in the U.S. and how these disparities influence social behavior and prejudice. Susan Fiske draws on extensive research to reveal that envy and scorn are shaped by biological, emotional, and cognitive factors, impacting perceptions based on race, gender, and education. By examining status hierarchies, the work underscores the societal consequences of these comparisons and the importance of addressing the resulting prejudice for healthier relationships and communities.
