Jared Del Rosso's Denial is an outstanding academic work that should become a valuable resource for scholars, students, and lay readers alike... By meticulously unpacking denial dynamics at all levels of social life and spotlighting the taken-for-granted social processes and social structures that allow such practices to prosper, Del Rosso offers us a powerful tool for identifying and combatting denial in all its forms., Del Rosso delivers the sort of jolt we got from Erving Goffman's early work: the taken-for-granted is exposed in new, surprising ways, and we are invited to reimagine social life, "How do we deal with inconvenient facts such as global warming, organizational corruption, or racism, trying to 'maintain a sense of normalcy even when we encounter information to the contrary'? According to Jared Del Rosso, we deliberately disregard or explain them away, thereby implying that ignoring ('not noticing') is in fact an active mental process involving various attention-management strategies. Drawing on a rich transcontextual set of data, Denial offers us the necessary intellectual tools for understanding both our personal and institutional responses to political, financial, as well as sexual scandals, reminding us that, although never actually protecting us from problems, denial ("that most stubborn of adhesives") may very well be our most common way of responding to them.", "How do we deal with inconvenient facts such as global warming, organizational corruption, or racism, trying to 'maintain a sense of normalcy even when we encounter information to the contrary'?

It explores the many ways people manage to avoid noticing aspects of the world around them. Denial spans the full spectrum of not-noticing, from politely overlooking one another's minor errors, to trying to ignore major scandals and crises. It is readable and guaranteed to change how readers see their world., Going beyond the interpersonal work of escaping blame and managing embarrassment or scandal, this book cleverly reveals the strategies individuals, organizations, and governments use to ignore injustice. From emails offering excuses for missed class meetings to bureaucratic processes and workplace trainings that normalize deeply entrenched racism and sexism to social rituals that mask state violence, Jared Del Rosso has offered a significant and stunningly original contribution to our understanding of denial. This book, which powerfully shows how denial makes inequality tolerable, will surely become a classic., This is one of those wonderful books that reveal the joys of sociology.

Synopsis
From climate change to fake news, an entertaining and enlightening look at the widespread phenomenon of denial in our society Donald Trump won the election; climate change isn't real; America is a color-blind country. Despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary, why do so many of us refuse to admit the truth? In fact, as Jared Del Rosso argues in this thought-provoking book, denial is so much a part of our lives that we deny its existence all the time, even when this works against our best interest, even when we are being choked by its very fumes. Denial is one of those rare books that will change the way you think. In a highly readable style that draws on examples from current events, politics, and pop culture, Del Rosso teases out the complexities of denial, from "not noticing" that someone has food stuck in their teeth, to companies that engage in widespread fraud, like Enron and Wells Fargo, to the much larger-scale denials of climate change or systemic racism. Drawing on classic studies in the social sciences and his own research of the denial of torture, Del Rosso builds a fascinating typology of the forms and meanings of denial, exploring the behavior of those who refuse to acknowledge their actions, and what it means to live in a society where such lying, fraud, and corruption is commonplace. In wide-ranging examples, Del Rosso explores the causes, strategies, and consequences of denial. When scandal hits and accusations of misconduct are made, he argues that individuals like Harvey Weinstein or Brett Kavanaugh, or organizations like the Catholic Church or Penn State, go through a series of moves to try to avoid accountability. Del Rosso focuses on the individuals involved but also asks: how could so many people not know what their priests, or their coaches, or their coworkers were doing? Del Rosso effectively argues that recognizing what denial looks like is the crucial first step in mitigating its effects on us, and society as a whole. At a time when powerful people and institutions are increasingly being held accountable for their actions, Denial provides an undeniable reality check., From climate change to fake news, an entertaining and enlightening look at the widespread phenomenon of denial in our society Donald Trump won the election; climate change isn't real; America is a color-blind country.
