Moral Disengagement in the Perpetration of Inhumanities

Outline of moral deviations in inhumane behavior In this article we describe ethical behavior and the self-regulatory mechanism that controls various sanctions and human behavior. One way to control ethical behavior is to summarize social ethics standards through social sanctions. It is said that the moral system has two aspects of depression and initiative. Suppressors express that they do not exhibit inhumane behavior, while active factors express the willingness to act humaneously.

Selective moral separation arises by converting "cognitive reorganization" of inhumane behavior into rational one. He mentioned the concrete process of this situation: it is as follows: moral defense, disinfection words, informal social comparison, evacuation or responsibility transfer caused by the individual agency Denial rejection Harmful effects and attribution to the victim / inhumanization

The inhumanization of the victim also promotes moral separation. By doing so, when a target group can be easily identified as belonging to a different ethnic, ethnic, religious or political group of humans considered to be inferior or intimidating, the perpetrator Classify the group as inhumane. These isolated groups are returned to non-human beings, and memory of past misbehavior is activated by dominant groups, regardless of genuine or imagined. The inhumanization of the victim helps criminals defend their aggressive, sadistic and barbaric behavior. The general form of inhumanization is the use of a language to redefine the victim. Therefore, they are considered to guarantee aggressiveness. The moral detachment of perpetrators complements the inhumane and vulgar language of the victims. Consistently, perpetrators made their victims irrational, and these words became a substitute for perceiving humanity.

Understanding moral liberation and its triggering helps policy makers understand the existence of such monopolistic behavior and explain how to counter it. Moral withdrawal is defined as a slow "withdrawal process" in which individuals or groups are placed outside the boundaries of moral values, rules and fair consideration.
