A multidisciplinary analysis of marginalized people in various contexts
Every person contains a degree of otherness, as identity is formed by social belonging. However, group solidarity can lead as well to exclusion, stigmatization, and even violence against those deemed different. They face trauma and contempt, suffering in silence that is engendered by shame or enforced by dominant communities and narratives, while the silence surrounding victimization further deepens the harm and isolation experienced by those affected. This volume brings together analyses examining past and present forms of marginalization related to various groups of excluded people. The essays it contains call for the recognition of those often ignored by society and attempt to give a voice to the unheared.
