«El origen del odio» is the psychology essay by Alice Miller, published by Ediciones B in paperback (222 pages, in Spanish).
Alice Miller argues that hatred is not an innate condition but the result of childhood experiences marked by humiliation, abuse, and lack of protection. These repressed emotions can eventually turn into rage and violence in adulthood, so the author insists on raising children without humiliating them as a way to break that cycle.
Translation by Carlos Fortea. Original title: Wege des Lebens. Sieben Geschichten. Belongs to the Sine qua non collection.
Of interest to parents, educators, and psychology readers who want to understand how childhood humiliation can shape adult behavior.
Alice Miller was a Polish-Swiss psychologist, psychoanalyst, and philosopher noted for her books on parental child abuse, translated into several languages. She was also a noted public intellectual. Her 1979 book The Drama of the Gifted Child caused a sensation and became an international bestseller upon the English publication in 1981. Her views on the consequences of child abuse became highly influential in the fields of child development, psychotherapy, and trauma. In her books she departed from psychoanalysis, charging it with being similar to the poisonous pedagogies.
