  Emotional abuse is one of the most insidious forms of mistreatment, often leaving deep psychological wounds that are not immediately visible. Unlike physical abuse, which leaves external scars, emotional abuse erodes a person’s sense of self-worth, independence, and emotional stability over time. It can occur in various relationships, including romantic partnerships, family dynamics, friendships, workplaces, and even societal structures. Understanding what emotional abuse is, how it manifests, and the long-term effects it has on victims is essential for recognizing and addressing it. 
  At its core, emotional abuse is a pattern of behavior aimed at controlling, belittling, or manipulating another person through psychological means. This can include gaslighting, where the abuser makes the victim question their own reality, constant criticism that undermines self-confidence, and emotional withholding, where love and affection are used as tools for control. Unlike one-time conflicts or disagreements, emotional abuse is a repeated, systematic approach that leaves the victim feeling trapped, powerless, and unworthy. 
  One of the most damaging aspects of emotional abuse is that it often happens gradually, making it difficult for victims to recognize. Many victims rationalize or minimize their experiences, believing that they are overreacting or that the abuser’s behavior is justified. Emotional abusers often shift blame onto their victims, making them feel responsible for the mistreatment. This cycle of manipulation creates emotional dependency, where the victim feels unable to leave the abusive situation due to fear, guilt, or the hope that things will improve.

  The False Promise of Superiority...

  This political analysis exposes the fanciful logic that the United States can use nuclear weapons to vanquish nuclear adversaries or influence them when employing various coercive tactics. 
   
   
   
  During the Cold War, American policymakers sought nuclear advantages to offset an alleged Soviet edge. Policymakers hoped that US nuclear capabilities would safeguard deterrence, when backed perhaps by a set of coercive tactics. But policymakers also hedged their bets with plans to fight a nuclear war to their advantage should deterrence fail. In The False Promise of Superiority, James H. Lebovic argues that the US approach was fraught with peril and remains so today. He contends that the United States can neither simply impose its will on nuclear adversaries nor safeguard deterrence using these same coercive tactics without risking severe, counterproductive effects. As Lebovic shows, the current faith in US nuclear superiority could produce the disastrous consequences that US weapons and tactics are meant to avoid. This book concludes that US interests are best served when policymakers resist the temptation to use, or prepare to use, nuclear weapons first or to brandish nuclear weapons for coercive effect.

  What fuels and sustains activism and organizing when it feels like our worlds are collapsing? Let This Radicalize You is a practical and imaginative resource for activists and organizers building power in an era of destabilization and catastrophe. 
   
   
   
  Longtime organizers and movement educators Mariame Kaba and Kelly Hayes examine some of the political lessons of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the convergence of mass protest and mass formations of mutual aid, and consider what this confluence of power can teach us about a future that will require mass acts of care, rescue, and defense, in the face of both state violence and environmental disaster. 
   
   
   
  The book is intended to aid and empower activists and organizers as they attempt to map their own journeys through the work of justice-making.
