Hate: toward a Four-Types Model

Abstract Drawing on insights found in both philosophy and psychology, this paper offers an analysis of hate distinguishes between its main types. I argue that is a sentiment, i.e., form to regard the other as evil which certain occasions can be acutely felt. On basis definition, develop typology which, unlike typologies does not explain terms patterns affective states. By examining developmental history intentional structure hate, obtain two variables: replaceability/irreplaceability target determinacy/indeterminacy focus concern. The combination these variables generates four-types model according comes following kinds: normative, ideological, retributive, malicious.
