Humiliation is often cited in attempts to understand the origins of asymmetric conflicts, especially conflicts involving terrorism. We define humiliation as a combination of anger and shame.
( what about the images below could make a person designated to the group represented on Google search feel humiliated?)
Following appraisal theory, this definition distinguishes between the situational appraisals associated with humiliation (insult and injury; failure to retaliate) and the emotional experience of humiliation (in which the combination of anger and shame may be more synergism than summation).
Research on humiliation has barely begun and focuses on interpersonal relations; a crucial issue is whether interpersonal humiliation is the same experience as the intergroup humiliation salient in accounts of terrorism and terrorists.
