Docho Atsuryoku No Shotai (PHP Shinsho)

[Machine Translation] When the spirit of harmony turns into a curse, it becomes peer pressure. Why can Japanese virtues turn into invisible violence? We have accepted "the difficulty of living" vaguely without knowing the reason. However, the current focus on peer pressure due to the Corona disaster is an opportune time to explore the true nature of this pressure, which has been dismissed with the ambiguous expression, "air. This book looks back on the history of the "merits" and "crimes" of peer pressure while deciphering the mechanisms that give rise to peer pressure. It also analyzes the "horizontal peer pressure" that has newly emerged with the evolution of social networking services. The lecture will then explain the mechanisms to prevent and cope with peer pressure. This is a book that will make your life a little easier.
