Infantilised

In "Infantilised," cultural theorist Dr. Keith Hayward delves into the phenomenon of societal infantilisation, exploring how adults are increasingly treated as incapable children needing guidance and protection. By examining the roots and implications of this trend, Hayward highlights the social, psychological, and political dangers it presents while offering a nuanced critique filled with anecdotes from reality TV to politics. The book not only addresses the seductive appeal of infantilism but also provides insights and suggestions for reclaiming adult autonomy in an increasingly child-like world.
