Detailed explanation-1: -Dehumanization is the denial of full humanness in others and the cruelty and suffering that accompanies it. A practical definition refers to it as the viewing and treatment of other people as though they lack the mental capacities that are commonly attributed to human beings.
Detailed explanation-2: -One example of dehumanization might be an employer treating all their workers like robots rather than individuals-for example, by refusing to provide safe working conditions or to allow regular breaks.
Detailed explanation-3: -Dehumanization is the perspective that certain people should be denied uniquely human rights and specific out-groups are therefore denied the privileges, activities, or agency that are ordinarily ascribed to in-groups (8, 9, 15).
