| - | {{Template}}A '''guilt society''' is one in which the primary method of [[social control]] is the inculcation of feelings of [[guilt]] for behaviors that the society defines as undesirable. It involves an implicit judgment on the being (rather than just the behavior) of the individual: "You are an [[evil]] person if you would do such-and-so." It also involves creating the [[expectation]] of punishment now (when the behavior fails to be kept secret) and/or in the hereafter. | + | #redirect[[Guilt–shame–fear spectrum of cultures ]] |
