Scapegoating in Families: Intergenerational Patterns of Physical and Emotional Abuse

Learning not to live and now knowing how to change: This is the world of the scapegoat according to Dr Vimala Pillari, who has worked with many unfortunate child-victims and adult survivors of severe scapegoating. Dr Pillari analyzes the multifaceted aspects of these victims and their dysfunctional families and demonstrates that scapegoating is an intergenerational phenomenon - parents and their children are victims of their upbringing. The legacy of scapegoating lives on from one family to another, from one generation to the next. With psychodynamic insight and detailed clinical examples, the author illuminates the complexity of family dynamics and human behaviour and provides guidelines for treatment.
