====The Frustration-Aggression Hypothesis==== *Aggression (the intention to harm others purposefully) happens because people are frustrated that they have not achieved their goals *Being aggressive at the source of the problem is dangerous because it is usually more powerful than us (your boss who just fired you; the state for taxing you). We instead direct our anger at subordinate groups. **Ex. periodic increases in lynchings of U.S. Black people followed periods of economic stress in the South * '''However, more work suggests discrimination happens all the time and is not solely linked to frustration.''' *Moreover, the F-A Hypothesis assumes that aggression is unusual rather than a normal part of social life.
