Disparagement Humor in Social Life: Competition vs. Subjugation
Nathan Miczo
This book critiques the superiority theory of disparagement humor, rooted in Hobbes’s definition of laughter. Nathan Miczo offers the agon (Greek for contest) as a metaphor to demonstrate how within- and between-group dynamics shape the creation and reception of disparagement humor.
