Contents:

Introduction -- 1. Three faces of aggression: confrontational aggression, passive-aggression, and camouflaged aggression -- 2. A paradox of modern society -- 3. Patterns of camouflaged aggression -- 4. Camouflaged aggression and personality -- 5. Sociocultural factors in camouflaged aggression -- 6. Prevention and control of camouflaged aggression -- Epilogue: Complexity, camouflage, entropy, and explosive violence -- Glossary -- References -- Index -- About the author.

Summary: "When aggression is expressed by means of formal organizational structures, it becomes camouflaged and non-confrontational, and affects mental health. Alexander Abdennur's observations show people avoiding open discourse, taking segmented positions, and hiding behind organizational structures. After reviewing two universally occurring and challenging developments--complexity and camouflage--Abdennur recommends a cognitive approach for the management of workplace hostility in organizations. Professors and students of psychology, organizational behaviour, and criminology will find this a necessary and insightful resource."-- Provided by publisher.
