Camouflaged aggression is a form of antisocial behavior in which the formal regulations & procedures of an organization are used in both delivering & masking aggression. As a result, new dynamics of aggression emerge which can mask the motive, the act of aggression, the perpetrator & sometimes even the victim. Paradoxically, the most advanced structures of contemporary society are promoting primal strategies of deception & camouflage usually only found in the survival & predatory behavior of lower species.This book deals with the identification & control of camouflaged aggression in all organizations, from small businesses to mult-inational corporations & governments. Here there are descriptions of patterns of camouflaged aggression within the workplace, such as time & information manipulation, withdrawal, inaccessibility, entrapment & undermining the sense of security. The author analyzes the impact of this non-violent aggression on mental health & on productivity, & its possible function in explosive violence & random mass murder. The final chapter suggests strategies for the identification, prevention & management of camouflaged aggression in the workplace.Ismael, Tareq Y. is the author of 'Canada And The Middle East The Foreign Policy Of A Client State', published 1994 under ISBN 9781550590760 and ISBN 1550590766.
