This book offers an interdisciplinary examination of violence and aggression, encompassing a broad range of interactions between individual traits and organisational, cultural, and societal phenomena. The reader is invited to reconsider conventional approaches to destructive behaviour in various contexts and to explore how deep-seated psychological mechanisms, emotion regulation, institutional norms, and collective reactions contribute to a complex cycle of violence. Analysing topics such as food choices, workplace violence, leadership, media impact and the dynamics of mass protests, this collection opens up a broad field of theoretical and practical insights. The strength of this book lies in its culturally sensitive and contextual approach, which combines perspectives from neuropsychology, physiology, management, sociology, media studies, and ethics. The book is relevant not only to the scientific community but also to human resource professionals and policymakers, all of whom care about the prevention of individual and group violence. The reader will find not only intriguing research findings but also an impetus to take a holistic approach to the issue of violence.
