Punishing Transgression in Honor Culture and Face Culture

By Michael Steppat, Yan Sun, Mine Krause

In the world's honor and face cultures, values related to a family's reputation are deep-rooted. When individuals violate them, the honor of the deviant's in-group itself is damaged, leading to stigmatization and rejection. Punishments range from psychological to physical violence. The book is endorsed by the celebrated Turkish writer Elif Shafak.
