The Political Psychology of Degradation - a discussion with guests Paul Kahn, author of Sacred Violence: Torture, Terror, and Sovereignty, and Dr. Mark Hovee, author of Wayward Soldier: A Reserve Psychologist's Memoir. Why have advances in international humanitarian law not prevented massive death and harm to civilians? Why is it important to try to understand the underlying structure of American political culture? My goal with this program is to address the political psychology of degradation. Paul Kahn, Professor of Law, challenges us to face the political meaning of violence as well as the ethos of sacrifice that drives American political theology. U.S Army Reserve psychologist Mark Hovee has observed the toll of war on soldiers as well as conducted research on psychological factors associated with Abu Ghraib (dehumanization and how/why it occurs). Hosted by David Occhiuto.
