We focus on cases where individuals are targeted solely due to their perceived unworthiness or undeserving nature, often resulting in dehumanization. Our analysis primarily centers around genocide, mass murder, large-scale killings driven by hate or greed, and fascism as an ideology that promotes and leads to such acts. We draw upon social psychology, particularly recent advancements in the study of prejudice, to gain insights into the psychology of fear, hate, intolerance, and violence. Recent years have witnessed significant advancements in our understanding of these psychological factors, as well as the funding of dehumanization by powerful corporations through \"dark money\" and the psychology of genocidal leaders. This comprehensive approach allows us to construct a more detailed backstory of why individuals engage in mass killings of minorities and vulnerable populations. We then expand our scope to address the broader \"problem of evil\" (or seemingly irrational killing) in general, encompassing politics, economics, and society as a whole. Our interdisciplinary work draws upon psychology, sociology, economics, political science, public health, anthropology, and biology, providing a unique perspective on these complex issues.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 386g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 228 x 152 x 18 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781666918724\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"E.N.
